I was able to attend the previous SSiC & really appreciated it as a unique, thought-provoking, inclusive, & accessible virtual conference! Highly recommend for those interested in anthropology / history of science.

My 1st in-person conference presentation at #ATALM2022! I was part of the team presenting this session & preconf workshop about Indigenous intellectual property. Was great to re/connect with so many fantastic people. Hope everyone can find some space to reflect & recoup 😴

The next generation of biodiversity genomics researchers are transforming outdated data sharing&management practices in the field of biodiversity genomics. The future we want for biodiversity genomics can only exist if we create it. 1/5

Meet Local Contexts Institution Outreach Manager @CorrieRoe! Corrie (she/her) supports institutions in their use of the Local Contexts Notices, joining the Local Contexts Hub, and engaging with Indigenous communities about the appropriate use of their TK & BC Labels.
Black text on decorative blue background. At top, “Meet the Local Contexts Team.

She attended University of Vermont for her undergraduate studies in Anthropology and earned a M.A. in Museum Studies from New York University. Her previous roles have been in museum education, exhibitions, and visitor services, and in newspaper design and copyediting. In her spare time, she enjoys walking her dog, playing board games with her partner, and reading.” In the bottom right is the Local Contexts logo, a ring made of black dots.

Just a reminder that the reasons Indigenous, Black, Brown belongings & bodies are on display (& in storage) — the foundational history & ongoing violence, colonialism, white supremacy, eugenics of museums & anthro — usually can’t be addressed with a few well-worded window clings.

ONE of over 2 dozen dioramas/mannequin displays of “cultures” had an interpretive layer added in Oct 2018 (pic). The others remain without context. Besides the NWC Hall, the anthro halls you see today were installed 1966-2001 & have largely remained static since then.
Photo of the AMNH Old New York diorama. A colonial man stands in front of a windmill and stereotypical representations of the Lenape stand in the foreground. On the glass in front of the diorama are boxes of text that cannot be read in this image. The largest is titled “Reconsidering this scene.”

One sentence that made me pause was the parenthetical note that the anthropological “scenes” at AMNH were amended in 2019. IMO this needs clarification. If you don’t click through to the other story, this is a huge overstatement —
Screenshot from “President of the Museum of Natural History to Step Down After Nearly 30 Years”: “Over the last three decades, Futter has presided over a museum that seems both frozen in time and propelled forward by change. On the one hand, the dioramas – some of which feature Indigenous tribes – with which the museum is close associated have endured, reliable for repeat visitors and at the same time a symbol of the institution’s slowness to evolve, particularly in a world newly sensitive to cultural stereotypes and inaccuracies. (The scenes were finally amended in 2019.) Last month, the Northwest Coast Hall reopened with a new emphasis on the lives of Indigenous people.”
