I worked in a large, well-funded state agency that operates many historical sites, museums and parks. Our visitation is not racially representative of the population. We had a speaker from a DEI organization come and lecture us last year, and it fell flat for a lot of the audience because it assumed a level of understanding that our many rural staff do not have. The recent protests have pushed leadership to update our frankly outdated historical displays and confront issues that have been ignored for years. That's all well and good but I believe a future phase will involve anti bias trainings for staff who deal with particularly sensitive historical topics. It's so-so. Support for these initiatives from leadership seemingly came at a politically advantageous time for them, and as we know anti bias training doesn't work. On the other hand some of our museums, etc. are sorely in need of updating. So broadly I see the historical focused changes as good and necessary, but the trainings/lectures as potentially counterproductive.
