    January 2024 Updates and Catch-Up

    Catch up with us once again as we discuss what has changed since our last check-in at ATALM 2022. In this episode, we talk about where our lives are at, including Felicia’s new job as the Education, Programs, and Volunteer Manager for her community’s museum and Meranda’s new exhibition “Continuity: Cahuilla Basket Weavers and their Legacies” opening at the Benton Museum of Art at Pomona College in February 2024.  Meranda talks about what it’s like being a professor, if we can still use “decolonization” when discussing museums, and our hopes for the next year, including podcast dream guests, re-interviewing former guests, and media help!  Resources mentioned in the podcasts:  https://www.aam-us.org/2023/10/26/resisting-the-colonial-imagination-the-role-of-exhibition-design-in-the-decolonial-project/ https://pueblopottery.vilcek.org/?utm_source=exhibition&utm_medium=website&utm_id=groundedinclay&utm_content=met https://mailchi.mp/pomona/continuity-press-release?e=c78c7dd95f https://conservation.ucla.edu/inclusion/care-conservation-of-indigenous-collections-workshop/?fbclid=IwAR1u4oJlslR2tI-_FcugQw7KXVuDFaW2p19fHIVosxTwduHqmZu4lWALzLs

    Episode 8 Live at ATALM

    On #IndigenousPeoplesDay2022 we met at the Association of Tribal Archives, Libraries, and Museums' annual conference, hosted by the Pechanga Band of Indians, to record a special live (via zoom) episode of our award winning podcast! Not only was this the first time we recorded an episode in person, but was also the first time Meranda shared (with this audience) her experience working as a Native co-curator at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. Our conversation focused on her work on the recently renovated exhibition hall, Native Truths. We had a great discussion about the good, and the bad, that comes with trying to decolonize a colonial institution!
