SIAHIN_220508_02.JPG: Think With Us
Welcome back! Here at the museum, we study history, but like you we also live it.
We are living through a historic moment as the country faces multiple crises: a global pandemic, political turmoil, economic uncertainty, climate change, and widespread protests against racial injustice.
Just as you are dealing with these issues, so too are we as the museum's staff. We're thinking a lot about what we collect, what we exhibit, and what we present. You'll see signs in the galleries pointing out areas where we're focusing our attention. We want you to think with us about how we might respond as history shifts around us.
Send us your thoughts at s.si.edu/thinkwithus
We'll gratefully read all submissions but won't share them without your approval.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

2022 photos: This year included major setbacks -- including Putin's invasion of Ukraine and the Supreme Court imposing the evangelical version of sharia law -- but also some steps forward like the results of the midterms.
This website had its 20th anniversary in August, 2022.
Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000.
Trips this year:
(February) a visit to see Dad and Dixie in Asheville, NC with some other members of my family,
(July) a trip out west for the return of San Diego Comic-Con, and
(October) a long weekend in New York to cover New York Comic-Con.
Number of photos taken this year: about 386,000, up 2020 and 2021 levels but still way below pre-pandemic levels.
