What is the relationship between Native Americans and museums? To explore this question, this roundtable discussion panel brings into conversation European and U.S. anthropologists and American Indians Studies scholars on the natures, sources, and truths of past and present best practices that enable culturally competent collaborations between Native American communities and individuals and museum practitioners. The discussions and presentations on this panel illuminate examples of responsible effective collaboration that lend to the creation of exhibits which expand museum practices while respecting Native American aims and their right to funerary objects and cultural patrimony under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). The timely nature of this panel is supported by changing museum practices that are direct precipitates of Native American contestation and truths of culturally insensitive relationships with institutions and recognition by museum professionals of the need for paradigm expansion.
