But this is easier said than done—so much becomes clear when Vos follows Wolfs and his team as they strive for greater diversity in the collection, as well as among their staff.

Sarah Halimi was murdered by her Malian-born neighbor during the French presidential campaign of 2017.

The various developments in the case, particularly the fact that there are no longer any charges against the murderer, and the prevention of any reconstruction of the case, make it a new Dreyfus Affair. One of the biggest scandals in France today.
