Exclusion happens everywhere in the museum. From the objects that the curator choose to collect, to the presence or absence of stories in the interpretation and the exhibitions, and the displays. How those interpretations are framed, how a museum reaches out to communities to tell particular stories or to tell stories they are already telling. Museums choose stories they are telling. And they do so in a way that suggest or we suggest it is for our core audience. And these are the people who already sees themselves in the stories that we present, in the objects on Display. And they are the people who are already coming. We serve them, and we continue to serve them. But many lives and experiences are not represented in the stories. Or at worst even considered in the planning and development of exhibitions, programmes and events. #20daylinkedinchallengewithhaoma #inclusivity #museums
