Museums are tricky, especially for a nerdy mixed #Native like me. At their best, they provide rich opportunities to absorb knowledge and beauty while moving through peaceful interior spaces designed to stimulate reflective contemplation.
At their worst, they are prisons for stolen treasures and perpetuate narratives benefiting those in power by, for example, framing Native people as relics of an ancient past instead of as living, contemporary people and cultures.
