Abstract

This review analyses the exhibition Indigenous Liberators at the Vrijheidsmuseum in Groesbeek, the Netherlands. The exhibition explores the often neglected role of North American Indigenous soldiers in the liberation of the Netherlands in World War 2. Indigenous Liberators shows how Indigenous participation was motivated by diverse factors, from resisting fascism to asserting cultural identity. Despite facing discrimination in the military, many Indigenous soldiers also experienced a rare sense of equality during the war. Additionally, the exhibition effectively positions the Indigenous contribution within colonial histories and the postwar struggle for recognition. Furthermore, personal stories, artefacts, video interviews, and educational materials at Indigenous Liberators challenge stereotypes and enriche our understanding of Indigenous agency in global history while contributing to public awareness.

“土著解放者”,荷兰格勒斯贝克自由博物馆,2025年5月2日至11月30日
这篇评论分析了荷兰格罗斯贝克vrijheidmuseum的土著解放者展览。这次展览探讨了二战中北美土著士兵在解放荷兰过程中经常被忽视的角色。《土著解放者》展示了从抵抗法西斯主义到维护文化认同等多种因素如何推动土著参与。尽管在军队中受到歧视,许多土著士兵在战争中也经历了罕见的平等感。此外,展览有效地定位了土著在殖民历史和战后争取承认的斗争中的贡献。此外,原住民解放者的个人故事、手工艺品、视频采访和教育材料挑战了刻板印象,丰富了我们对全球历史上原住民角色的理解,同时有助于提高公众意识。

期刊介绍: Museum Anthropology seeks to be a leading voice for scholarly research on the collection, interpretation, and representation of the material world. Through critical articles, provocative commentaries, and thoughtful reviews, this peer-reviewed journal aspires to cultivate vibrant dialogues that reflect the global and transdisciplinary work of museums. Situated at the intersection of practice and theory, Museum Anthropology advances our knowledge of the ways in which material objects are intertwined with living histories of cultural display, economics, socio-politics, law, memory, ethics, colonialism, conservation, and public education.
