SUMMARY:History Revealed: Connecting to Collections- Preservation for Who? 
DESCRIPTION:Connecting to Collections: Preservation for Who?   \nChris Rico\, Nienow Cultural Consultants \nHistory Revealed Series\nThursday\, September 21\, 2023\n7:00 pm \nIn partnership with the East Side Freedom Library and Ramsey County Libraries-Roseville \nLive presentation on Zoom\nRegister in advance for this meeting: Zoom Registration Link\nRegistration is limited. You will receive a confirmation email after registering.\nFor questions\, please email events@rchs.com \nJoin Public Historian\, Archaeologist\, and Conservator\, Christopher Rico (M.HSPH) for a focused discussion on the topic of representation and access in museum collections and how to care for and preserve your personal collections like a museum conservator. In this program\, Christopher will talk about some of the social and cultural issues connected to collecting institutes\, how these issues effect different communities\, and how it has led to the growth of grassroots community preservation initiatives and a growing need for the sharing of resources and knowledge in preservation techniques. \nMany museums and collecting institutions task themselves with adding to and maintaining their collections of 3-D objects\, books\, paper files\, and the digital and physical archives which accompany them. This task is often made a central pillar of a collecting institution’s mission as it is held that through this process\, knowledges may be preserved\, access to them expanded\, and through interpretation new understandings created. However\, being that this practice is historically rooted to empire and colonialism\, there is an undeniable effect on the way in which this mission has been conducted. Furthermore\, additional factors within institutions affect how collections are managed and what is deemed worthy of collection. Among other effects\, this results in the exclusion of certain communities within collections\, barriers to access\, and questions about the accuracy of knowledge provided by collections and their interpretation. In response to these issues\, the practices of community archiving and grassroots preservation have grown exponentially in recent decades\, creating a need for access to complex resources and knowledges often held by or provided exclusively to collecting institutions. \nChris Rico has a robust and diverse field of experience in heritage studies spanning over the last six years. He obtained his master’s degree at the University of Minnesota in Heritage Studies and Public History and has been working in various community development positions since. His breadth of experience includes extensive archival use\, processing\, and research experience\, community driven and engaged public history projects\, oral histories\, and preservation and special collections management.

For questions\, please email events@rchs.com \nThe Spanish-American War marked the emergence of the United States as an imperial power. It was when the United States first landed troops overseas and established governments of occupation in the Philippines\, Cuba\, and other formerly Spanish colonies. But such actions to extend U.S. sovereignty abroad\, argues Katharine Bjork\, had a precedent in earlier relations with Native nations at home. In Prairie Imperialists\, Bjork traces the arc of American expansion by showing how the Army’s conquests of what its soldiers called “Indian Country” generated a repertoire of actions and understandings that structured encounters with the racial others of America’s new island territories following the War of 1898. \nPrairie Imperialists follows the colonial careers of three Army officers from the domestic frontier to overseas posts in Cuba and the Philippines. The men profiled—Hugh Lenox Scott\, Robert Lee Bullard\, and John J. Pershing—internalized ways of behaving in Indian Country that shaped their approach to later colonial appointments abroad. Scott’s ethnographic knowledge and experience with Native Americans were valorized as an asset for colonial service; Bullard and Pershing\, who had commanded African American troops\, were regarded as particularly suited for roles in the pacification and administration of colonial peoples overseas. After returning to the mainland\, these three men played prominent roles in the “Punitive Expedition” President Woodrow Wilson sent across the southern border in 1916\, during which Mexico figured as the next iteration of “Indian Country.” \nWith rich biographical detail and ambitious historical scope\, Prairie Imperialists makes fundamental connections between American colonialism and the racial dimensions of domestic political and social life—during peacetime and while at war. Ultimately\, Bjork contends\, the concept of “Indian Country” has served as the guiding force of American imperial expansion and nation building for the past two and a half centuries and endures to this day. \nKatharine Bjork is Professor of History at Hamline University and author of In the Circle of Dance: Notes of an Outsider in Nepal. \nPlease check out our partner Subtext Books\, located in downtown St. Paul and online at: https://subtextbooks.com/ for this and other History Revealed titles.
