TFG Unbuttoned: Words Matter

from The Focus Group · host The Focus Group

Words have gotten people in trouble this week. The Director of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games had to resign for making disparaging remarks about women, and an employment ad for a museum in Indianapolis seeks a director who would maintain its core white art audience. When asked to clarify, the museum's chief executive said the use of “white” was intentional. Find out why and see if you agree. But first, there is a pet food shortage to add to paper towels, toilet paper, and bleach.
