Same volunteers they fired were probably supporting the place with their large donations. Really stupid move.

Hope it tanks them.

True! And on the other side of that coin ...

It couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of gray-haired liberal cat ladies.
Enjoy the wokeness of it all, gals!

Yep. Museums are not money-making enterprises. They depend on financial contributions to keep the doors open.

Typically, docents are old ladies with time on their hands and a passion for the arts. Volunteering at the museum gives them purpose and a social outlet - hanging out with other old ladies with similar interests.

I would imagine you're correct about the docents donating financially to the museum. They're also more likely to bequeath money in their wills.

And, more to the point... I can't imagine the museum turning down volunteers... if there are no black docents, it is likely that none have sought to volunteer.
