SUMMARY:Confronting Difficult Histories in Museums\, Archives\, and Historic Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Recently\, conversations reignited around appropriate presentations of\nso-called “difficult” histories like white supremacy\, colonization\, and other\nracial injustices\, and how those histories challenge long-standing\, narrow\,\nor often inaccurate interpretations. This session dives into how museums\nand other memory spaces can and must acknowledge and host those\ndifficult conversations and the important histories they can teach. It\nchallenges the idea of them as “difficult” and asks guests to explore why\nwe value some interpretations over others. \nGeorge Garner (he/him) earned his M.A. in Museum Studies from the\nCooperstown Graduate Program where he gained experience in museum\nadministration\, exhibitions\, and collections care at such well-known\ninstitutions as the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum and the\nChesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. He has dedicated his career to\nexploring how museums and memory spaces can help people make\nmeaning from traumatic histories and use history to work actively toward\nchange today. Since 2012\, he has served the Indiana University South\nBend Civil Rights Heritage Center\, a space that\, for thirty years\, operated\nas a segregated city-owned swimming pool.
