On the Cover The cover photograph, courtesy of the Floating Museum, shows an exhibit the museum sponsored that was on display at the DuSable Museum of African American History in 2016 called “How to Give Life to a Mountain.” It was an invitation to engage with the legacy of Dr. Margaret Burroughs and the history of the DuSable Museum itself. The Floating Museum (www.floatingmuseum.org) is an art collective that creates new models by exploring relationships between art, community, architecture, and public institutions using site-responsive art, design, and programming. Special thanks to Lawyers for the Creative Arts for assisting with our cover. Learn more about the group at law-arts.org.
