American Art against Anti-Black Violence | Janet Dees | NU People Podcast E4

Janet Dees is an art curator at the Block Museum of Art, the contemporary art museum on Northwestern University's campus that is free and open to all. Her exhibition, A Site of Struggle: American Art against Anti-Black Violence, is on view until July 10, 2022. We talked about curating an exhibition, how Janet got to this point in her career, and about art in general.
