It took me 20 years to get a solo museum show in NYC & not only did it sell out many times it proved to be a game changer for The Morgan packing in simultaneously a new & diverse audience. Other Museums should take note esp those seeking engagement beyond an insular artworld

The graduate students I teach in Global Thought at Columbia University are so at ease with the reality of the interconnected world. They have a truly capacious sense of their local communities. I learned a lot. Thanks to my former students Telma Viale, Junjie Ren, Zohra, and Rasmus!

How can anyone still believe that the right is committed to protecting life when it can’t be bothered to protect the lives of children at school

Same old dangerous ideology treating everyone with Chinese heritage as subject of the PRC party-state, putting Chinese diaspora around the world in jeopardy.

My favorite quote about art, from none other than Bill Russell a Basketball legend: “if you can take something levels that few others can reach, then what you are doing becomes art.”The New York Times 8/1

Historian here to remind you that when the student body was predominantly white, world-class public universities like Berkeley charged no tuition. Today's student debt is a product of underfunding of education right as integration began to take place. dailycal.org/2014/12/22/his…
