I want to begin an on-going dialogue with Latinos and interested parties
on Museum-L on the state of participation of Mexicans, Mexican-Americans,
Chicanos, Puerto Ricans, Cubans and other Latino groups in administrative
and curatorial positions or those aspiring to such positions in U.S.
museums.  As part of this dialogue I also want to address the lack of
Latino art critics in national press and art magazines.  If you'd like to
participate in this dialogue (it won't be a listserv), I invite you
to return this initial e-mail if you're interested.

My questions specifically are:

Why aren't more Latinos employed in administrative and curatorial positions?

Why aren't Latino students being exposed to working in museums as career
options?

What kinds of opportunities are available for Latinos or any person of
color to intern in museums?

Is there a need for museums to address the lack of representation of
multicultural people in administrative and curatorial positions?  Why or
why not?

Sincerely yours,

Miguel Juarez
El Paso, Texas
