Yayoi Kusama, a 94-year-old mentally ill Japanese artist, is facing the possibility of being canceled. The artist, known for her unique artwork, has been criticized for lacking moral authority. However, some argue that not every aspect of her work should be evaluated through the lens of race. Meanwhile, the Web Summit technology conference has appointed Katherine Maher, the former head of the Wikimedia Foundation, as its new CEO, replacing co-founder Paddy Cosgrave.
