Taking the concept of the “pop-up” memorial museum as its point of departure, this panel discussion—held on February 10, 2020—explored the role of art and art institutions in bearing witness to legacies of historical racial violence. The spring 2020 Teaching Gallery exhibition, Truths and Reckonings: The Art of Transformative Racial Justice, asked: How might cultural archives and reparative curatorial practices build understanding of the past toward an ethical commitment to a better future? And how do we address injustice, past and present, within the St. Louis community and beyond? Participating were curator Geoff Ward, associate professor of African and African-American Studies in Arts & Sciences; Cheeraz Gormon, storyteller, writer, public speaker, and member of the St. Louis Community Remembrance Project Coalition; Tabari Coleman, Director of Professional Development, Anti-Defamation League; and Sabine Eckmann, William T. Kemper Director and Chief Curator.
