LILRC Webinar: Appalling Archives – Working with Offensive Collection Materials

August 27, 2020 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm EDT

What should be done with images, documents and objects that put us face-to-face with the ugly side of history? Panelists Regina Feeney (Freeport Memorial Library), Melanie Cardone-Leathers (Longwood Public Library), Claire Bellerjeau (Raynham Hall Museum), and Nicole Menchise will discuss how their organizations, past and present, have used these materials to promote an open dialogue about uncomfortable subjects through responsible access and public programs. Themes include slavery, racism, antisemitism and torture.
