This will be impressive program full of challenging thinkers and doers — . — a kind of love song and fairwell; a celebration; and a grappling with what was done (and and *not* done) in the name of science & society. And it all means for the future, of course — for *our* future.

The museum's founder, Tanvi Jindal, reached out to me in the fall of 2019 to get my thoughts on this beautiful, radical vision of hers to build a state-of-the-art "museum" as home for the kinds of inclusive, hands-on, "boldly child led" experiences she wanted to see in Mumbai.
