Reading exercise – Workforce

The makeup of our museum sector workforce is one of the ways in which institutional racism shows up. The following articles and resources consider the issue of institutional racism in the workforce:

Read this Museums Journal article. Estimated read time 4 minutes.

Read this Guardian article about Barbican stories, a book compiling accounts of institutional racism from Barbican staff. Estimated read time 5 minutes.

Read Barbican stories – we suggest reading foreword 1 or foreword 2, about the book and at least 1 story. Estimated read time 6 minutes. You can select the full screen icon in the right hand corner to enlarge the document.

Having read the resources, spend 5 minutes recording your reflections.
