| Abstract: | The National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI), the Smithsonian Institution’s new
facility on the National Mall inWashington DC, challenges the very notion of what constitutes a
museum. Probably the most theoretically informed museum in North America, this is no shrine
to the past: it is a museum that claims both past and present to shape a decolonised future for
Indigenous populations. |
