Pop-up exhibition outside MoMA highlights connections between trustee Leon Black and Jeffrey Epstein
A mobile version of the Epstein files reading room was parked near the museum on Tuesday, with Epstein survivors in attendance, as part of a campaign to pressure MoMA to cut ties with Black
On Tuesday, the Institute for Primary Facts' "Bookmobile" parked near the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York to pressure the institution to remove billionaire trustee Leon Black. Black is featured in 8,512 references in the Donald Trump administration's documents related to Jeffrey Epstein investigations. Survivors of Epstein's alleged sexual abuse joined organizers from the Institute for Primary Facts and feminist non-profit UltraViolet to draw attention to the files.
Black's spokesperson denied the allegations and accused the campaigners of spreading lies. The truck houses 440 books from the files, including volumes with references to President Donald Trump. The event aimed to educate visitors about Epstein's network of alleged co-conspirators and to call for Black to be removed from MoMA's board due to his ties to Epstein and the sexual abuse allegations against him.
