Abstract

Public historians have struggled to take a hard line against neo-Confederate groups in theory as well as practice. This article proposes a methodological shift that can clarify the work and obligations of the public historian following the insurrection on January 6, 2021. The frame of action research positions historians as public-facing actors and advocates. The frame of restorative justice clarifies the stakes of, and stakeholders within, historical harm. We apply these frameworks to two contested sites for public history in Florence, Alabama, that revolve around the Confederacy. Finally, we use our experiences from the field to distinguish communities from counter-communities and provide strategies for making cultural institutions inhospitable to cultural insurrectionists.

起义时代的公共历史

公共历史学家一直在努力在理论和实践上对新邦联团体采取强硬立场。这篇文章提出了一种方法上的转变，可以澄清公共历史学家在2021年1月6日暴动后的工作和义务。行动研究框架将历史学家定位为面向公众的行动者和倡导者。恢复性司法的框架阐明了历史危害的利害关系以及其中的利益相关者。我们将这些框架应用于阿拉巴马州佛罗伦萨的两个有争议的公共历史遗址，这两个遗址围绕着邦联。最后，我们利用我们在该领域的经验来区分社区和反社区，并提供使文化机构不适合文化起义者的策略。
