Abstract

Historic St. Mary’s City, an outdoor living history museum and research center, has been working on realigning its site narrative from a historically colonialist perspective towards a more inclusive, community-driven interpretive scheme. Two projects exemplify the development of this effort since 2018: the design of a long-term exhibition for a new visitor center and a collaborative initiative sparked by the archaeological discovery of the 1634 St. Mary’s Fort. These efforts have not been without missteps. This essay recounts the progress to date of HSMCC’s work to responsibly build partnerships with our community.

凿掉殖民主义者的镜头

历史悠久的圣玛丽城是一个户外生活历史博物馆和研究中心，一直在努力从历史殖民主义的角度重新调整其遗址叙事，以形成一个更具包容性、社区驱动的解释方案。自2018年以来，有两个项目体现了这一努力的发展：为一个新的游客中心设计一个长期展览，以及1634年圣玛丽堡考古发现引发的合作倡议。这些努力并非没有失误。本文讲述了迄今为止，HSMCC在负责任地与我们的社区建立伙伴关系方面取得的进展。
