Difficult Heritage and the Complexities of Indigenous Data

Abstract

4 We differentiate between data collected and represented by native peoples for their own use and interpretation and data that was collected by white colonists in the process of enacting continental genocide.Importantly, this distinction is made because the latter has formed a core dataset that is used by humanists in their study of Indigenous peoples.It brings forth a number of ethical issues this article attempts to interrogate. 5An excellent overview of this issue is captured in the #archivessowhite discussion and resulting four-part interview series available in Issues and Advocacy.
