Correcting History: Native Americans Tell Their Own Stories

Natural history museums have always struggled with representing Native Americans. People from these communities are often not included in the process, and their artifacts can be mishandled. But the Field Museum in Chicago, in partnership with the Neubauer Collegium, is trying to change that. Along with the first large-scale show to be curated by an Indigenous person, the Field is overhauling its Native North American Hall, to address the insensitive past of many natural history museums.
