The Brooklyn Museum has a very nice collection of African art, from 2,000 to 5,000 years old, produced in the lower Nile Valley (north of the Tropic of Cancer).

A PhD in African Art? Seriously?

And the first one who has ever actually gotten a job in their field.

Imagine attending Princeton University but obtaining a PhD. in African art? Isn’t that the epitome of privilege. The irony.

New curator needs to get a tan and get her hair curled.

What these dear little naive liberals don’t understand is, that as soon as their idiocy is no longer useful, they get “Trotskyed”.

One more leftist found out there are consequences for having white skin. Academic qualifications are meaningless in this instance.

Leontyne Price, a large black opera singer who has a voice that could make a bishop kick in a stained glass window, played a Japanese woman in Madame Butterfly singing in Italian. Nobody objected and it was beautiful!

Is that supposed to be some sort of Teletubby with that iPad on its gut?

Modern and post-modern art ... a good enough reason to like crafts rather than art.

I’m sure some would be upset with white people even looking at African art.

BTW, it it the ONLY Gallery in the Boston MFA that I rush through without looking at anything.

That's 'cause the curator at MFA is obviously a racist is hiding all the good stuff.
