If they close that shit we should start speaking behind closed doors about having an in-person meeting with our officials and make demands about how this term is gonna go. If they refuse we need to make them an offer that they can’t.

Headed by a South African who doesn’t give a shit about the American civil rights movement. So of course…

If it's important then couldn't the state or city take over running the museum/historic site?
