Journalists Yoav Gonen and April Xu, respectively at The City and Documented, examined 2,500 pages of emails, which show how Adams’ aide, Winnie Greco, pushed the Brooklyn Museum to stage a show dedicated to Sun Yat-sen, the first provisional president of the Republic of China, in just one month’s time, on behalf of the Overseas Chinese History Museum of China.
