Processing Information
This series includes racist, sexist, ableist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, classist, and/or otherwise offensive or hateful views and opinions.
Specifically, this series contains files that use currently outdated language to describe people with disabilities. Archivists have added more respectful terminology in brackets to the folder titles.
Our historical materials in particular are presented in their original and unaltered forms for research and study, which allows us to also confront our legacy of colonization and inform our understanding today. These items have been retained as they originally existed to preserve the integrity of the historical record and to foster accountability. The Brooklyn Museum Libraries and Archives does not endorse the views expressed in these materials, which are inconsistent with our institution’s values and commitment to creating an inclusive and accessible safe space.
