What purpose do Museums serve? When fact-checking is so easy using Google and Wikipedia and YouTube is awash with documentaries, you could be forgiven for thinking, that Museums might be a thing of the past (excuse the pun). But the good news is that we have hundreds of Museums of all shapes and sizes with terrific stories to tell. While the pandemic in 2020/21 was an obvious disruption for Museums, many benefitted from the reorganisation as even basic things like the layout of exhibits and visitor routes had to be designed to be more efficient. https://lnkd.in/egbP2XMR

Juneteenth (June 19th) marks the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas in 1865 to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed. The troops’ arrival came a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863.   Juneteenth honors the end to slavery in the United States and is considered the longest-running African American holiday. June 19th officially became a federal holiday in 2021.   I encourage you to read more about Juneteenth here: The Historical Legacy of Juneteenth | National Museum of African American History and Culture (si.edu) (See below) Also, here is some of the text from the Emancipation Proclamation:   "That on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repress such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they may make for their actual freedom” Abraham Lincoln     You should know this, but if not, The Emancipation Proclamation did not lead to the Civil War. The Civil War started two years earlier in 1861, primarily over disagreements over slavery, and ended in 1865.

Don't just keep those extra pieces in a backroom where nobody can see it! The Museum of the Red River (Idabel, OK) displays a huge collection of items behind a wall of glass where all guests can see them. LESSON: Tear down solid walls and put up glass walls for more exhibit space without needing a larger floor plan. This is a short clip of Brenda Granger (from the Oklahoma Museums Association) on an episode of The Condition Report.
