Missed this session in Minneapolis or weren't able to attend the Annual Meeting at all?  You're in luck!  At the request of the MAC Education Committee, 2025 MAC Annual Meeting attendees identified this session in the post-conference survey as well-suited for a virtual encore presentation.

Description: Archival repositories don't often hold materials created or authored by Indigenous peoples. Some archival repositories don't even have many materials written by colonizers about Indigenous peoples. So, how do archivists do outreach and programming to include Indigenous perspectives, if these perspectives aren't in our archives?
This event will be moderated by Fallon Carey, Digital Archives Director for the National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition, who will guide a conversation between Jenny DeRocher and Henry Greengrass as they tell the story of how they started working together, the projects they've collaborated on, and the lessons they've learned together. Together, the three will give tips on how to conduct projects in your own institution that focus on Indigenous perspectives instead of the colonizers', because our collections do that enough for us.

DeRocher and Greengrass have collaborated on various projects since 2022, including two video podcast productions featuring Indigenous voices, research and presentations on the myths of community founders, a scavenger hunt featuring local Indigenous history, a circulating library collection of books by Indigenous authors, an Indigenous film series, and education outreach at community events like Indigenous Peoples' Day and a Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women 5k. They met Carey at MAC25 after delivering the first version of this talk, and asked her to join in for this event.

This is a session of advice for archivists who want to do similar projects with decolonized mindsets.
Speakers:
Fallon Carey, National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition
Jenny DeRocher, La Crosse Public Library Archives
Henry Greengrass
