Human society and cultural news, studies, and other things of that nature. From linguistics to philosophy to religion to anthropology, if it's an academic discipline you can most likely put it here.

I've never said that any museum is strictly run by cis white men. My point is that the patriarchy and racism are real and lead to unconscious biases that we should be cautious of. Many museums have not done enough in being reflective of their own history and the history of the material they present (e.g. museums that present stolen artifacts from former colonies). I've never talked about censorship either, but rather getting a dialogue going between museums and their community. You projected a lot onto my comment there. Maybe you should think about what you're defensive about here.
