Abstract:

This article problematizes the commemoration of the quadricentennial of the landing of the Pilgrims in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1620 by focusing on the important interventions of Indigenous public historians and intellectuals. Their work on the digital and physical exhibit "Our" Story: 400 Years of Wampanoag History upends the national origin story anchored in the Plymouth commemorative landscape that erases Indigenous perspective and sanitizes a deeply conflictual history. The collective impact of their work challenges the timeline on which the quadricentennial is premised, insists on a reckoning with a longer and more violent history of settler colonialism, and emphasizes Wampanoag resilience and survival.

偏心1620

摘要:

本文着眼于土著公共历史学家和知识分子的重要干预,以纪念1620年朝圣者登陆马萨诸塞州普利茅斯的四年纪念活动。他们在数字和物理展览“我们的故事:Wampanoag历史400年”中所做的工作颠覆了以普利茅斯纪念景观为基础的民族起源故事,该故事消除了土著人的观点并净化了深深的冲突历史。他们工作的集体影响力挑战了四年一度的时间表,坚持以更长更暴力的定居者殖民主义历史为基础,并强调Wampanoag的复原力和生存能力。
