I want to remember this quote from Lippard for the rest of my life:
We're all struggling for the right to be perceived as subjects of history,
acting in it, rather than as objects acted upon.
Today the distinction between international
(which means mostly European-derived)
and global
(which means everyone who
is still usually left out despite a body of often brilliant past-colonial criticism)
is another barrier that has to be breached.
