Or the bright minds at Yale could simply have done what so many other schools did, adding non-western art while slightly reducing the number of western artworks? This smacks of Eurocentric profs taking their ball and going home.https://news.artnet.com/art-world/yale-art-history-eliminating-survey-course-1763082 …
