1 Jan 1875 Jahr - Smithsonian tasked with assembling Centennial exhibits

Beschreibung:

Emphasis placed on collecting objects that didn't appear to have been influenced by European goods. Centennial celebration was part of a push to conserve national and ecological history, Native Americans are understood to fall somewhere in between. Initial plans to have live Indigenous exhibits scrapped after a flood of petitions from Native leaders seeking to attend the Centennial and use it as a platform for
advocacy.
