Bravo to museum
Bravo to Pérez Art Museum Miami, where intelligence reigns!
The director removed an offensive Ché Guevera sculpture kit when the community objected, and he apologized for the museum’s insensitivity.
In contrast, here’s what happened when I asked a manager at the Russian World Market and Café in Hollywood to remove bottles of wine with an image of Josef Stalin.
When I asked him whether he was aware that displaying the image of a despot who murdered around 40 million people is offensive, he responded that it was only my opinion and that this is a free country.
