"Race and Gender Criticism"

After reading "Race and Gender Critisim" I feel that it was unfair that some people had less visual art put into art museums.  For example, in the passage, it states that the Museum of Modern Art had seventy-one artist put their art work up in their museum and there was only three white women , one women of color and no men of color that had art in that museum.  So that means the 66 artist that were left was white men.  This is just becoming ridiculous, the gender of women and people of color are not reciving the chance to get their art notice in museums.  This article made me think of alot of things, mostly it made me think about people treating colored people like they were still in slavery.  I say that colored people should get the same treatment as the white people. Colored people want to know how do others feel about their artwork, how do they suppose to do that if Museums are not putting up their artwork up so others can notice them.

A question I would ask the artist is What made you make the art that you made?
   How do you feel about the Museum of Modern Art only putting up one colored women artwork up?
