With the recent scientific advances in human genomic research and the public fervor for individual genetic ancestry testing, the museum is now challenged both to keep pace with current scientific research and wrestle with popular scientific thinking that circulates outside the museum. This article considers several strategies that the American Museum of Natural History Museum has used to intervene in public perceptions of “race”, genetics and human health through critical interactive dialogue—the museum as a space for audiences of various ages to investigate and interrogate the science and politics of human identity that accompany this new genetic frontier.","PeriodicalId":29738,"journal":{"name":"Museums & Social Issues-A Journal of Reflective Discourse","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15596893.2015.1131095","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60438241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The exhibition focuses on familiar health topics—obesity, skin color, lactose intolerance and health implications related to upright posture—and invites visitors to consider the relationship between natural selection and these health issues. In order to test the validity of the assumption that an evolution exhibition related to personal health could be effective, randomly selected visitors were assigned either to visit the evolution exhibition or an exhibition on astrobiology. Responses to post-visit interviews revealed that adult and youth visitors to the evolution exhibition had a better grasp of the role of natural selection in the prevalence of health issues than did visitors to the astrobiology exhibition.","PeriodicalId":29738,"journal":{"name":"Museums & Social Issues-A Journal of Reflective Discourse","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15596893.2016.1131102","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60438675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Museums have been involved in this discussion, primarily on social media. This article documents the origins, the evolution, and the impact of the #museumsrespondtoFerguson initiative that began in December 2014 and that continues a year later. It discusses the role that museums can and should play in the Ferguson initiative, and addresses questions about the relationship of museums’ individual missions to larger civic issues. The word “Ferguson” in museum discourse has come to refer not so much to the town and event as to larger concerns about race, racism, and the continuing lack of inclusion in our cultural spaces.","PeriodicalId":29738,"journal":{"name":"Museums & Social Issues-A Journal of Reflective Discourse","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/1559689315Z.00000000036","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65843168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through these outlets writers have called for museums to become more inclusive, transparent, and responsive.

Specifically, we demonstrate how through its exhibit and dialogue programming, the museum deepened understanding of immigration in ways that led to a warmer welcome and proactive inclusion.

Informal science institutions like museums provide opportunities to reach lay audiences. This study sought to examine the degree to which a science museum exhibition about the science of early childhood was a useful source of research information for state legislators, and whether that information informed legislators’ policy decision-making. Results highlight challenges in engaging state legislators in learning from informal science settings, but suggest increased consideration is warranted for science museums’ to use exhibitions as a way to translate and distill scientific concepts for state legislators. Though the exhibition did not have direct impact on policy decision-making, some legislators indicated it added to their cumulative knowledge on research topics pertinent to early childhood policies.","PeriodicalId":29738,"journal":{"name":"Museums & Social Issues-A Journal of Reflective Discourse","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/1559689315Z.00000000040","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65843296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
