Your Neighborhood Museum: Building Solidarity for Tribal and Community-led Cultural Heritage Preservation

Your Neighborhood Museum (YNM) works to empower artists and communities of color to care for their own cultural belongings and tell their own stories. Please join YNM for a discussion of their work with Tribal communities to repatriate and care for cultural heritage belongings. Founders Jennifer Kim and Lylliam Posadas will talk about their CARE (Caring About and Repatriating Everything) workshops, where Tribal cultural heritage stewards and museum workers come together to share knowledge and strategize on repatriation efforts, develop skills in conservation, and build capacity for preservation efforts. They will also present the Repatriation Meets the Protocols Workbook and Resource Guide, practical tools that provide guidance for archivists to support Tribal communities in researching repatriation cases.

If you missed this talk or want to revisit the discussion, the recording is now available.
