In this episode, Eric sits down with scholar, author & curator Dr. Ethelene Whitmire. They discuss her educational journey, her passion for libraries and working in the library field as a professor of Library Science and getting the resources to the public. How she became attracted to the art field. Having the opportunity of going to England to study abroad… visiting museums that helped her develop an eye for art. Developing an interest in visiting museums and tracing black art and culture within the art world and art institutions.
How writing a biography about Regina Andrews; a Harlem Renaissance librarian opened her horizons to learning about theatre and the artwork of the time, that then led her to explore African Americans in Denmark — including African American jazz musicians who lived and are buried there. How her love of Danish films and her fascination of African Americans in Denmark led to her to research, publishing some of writing and lecturing on the subject… and how her research has come now to life in an exhibition that she co-curated entitled “Nordic Utopia? : African Americans in the 20th Century” which opened at the National Nordic Museum in Seattle, WA that explores the wave of artists who migrated to Denmark to escape segregation and feel freedom as artists… and the realities of their experience of living abroad. How this wonderful work came about, what it hopes to achieve and how it plans to travel across the nation..!
