“If you’re not a diverse, inclusive, and anti-racist institution, you are going to be faced with a level of irrelevance that is going to be problematic,” Lucas Museum Director and CEO Sandra Jackson-Dumont tells @artsy. Click the link in our bio for the full interview.

I'm sure they'll find a way to call it racist.

OK? Was there some sort of concern it would be pro-racist?
What's the reason for such a statement?

George Lucas created an entire franchise that began with movies about heroic Vietnamese guerilla fighting an American empire that combines both imperialist Britain and Nazis. This is nothing new for him.

This is nothing new for him. He also made a franchise where the top heroine used what would pass as racial slurs to one of the 3 people who saved her, a universe where sentient artificial beings were treated as slave labour and allowed to be branded like cattle with little affection or care shown to them or their feelings, which under him featured 1 person of colour and 1 woman per the OT, 2 people of colour per the PT but still only one woman and also had very poorly chosen character accents...so yeah swings and roundabouts I guess??

It's very suspicious to me when people, in apropos of nothing, feel the need to make these kinds of statements. Like they're trying to hide something.
Was the museum ever accused of being racist by anyone? Is it being implied that other museums are racist? Why make that statement at all?

I can't count the amount of times I've been innocently wandering around a museum with Mrs Midi-chlorian Count when suddenly I come across some pro-racist paraphernalia in one of the rooms. "Quick let's get out of here asap" I inevitably cry! Will be great going to Uncle George's museum safe in the knowledge that there is NO chance that will happen there...

This reminds the admiral of the time when yours truly went to a restaurant that proudly posted a sign at the front entrance that read “Our food passes health inspection!”
