Webinar, Dec. 1: Burnt Out in GLAM World (How to Build Resilience in Survival Mode)
Dec. 1, 12pm
Presented by Rachael Christine Consulting
We are all there. We're burnt out and if we read one more article about how to "Quiet Quit" we're going to scream. If you're in the Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museum (GLAM) world, then chances are that you (at one point) had a deep passion for the field. But a lot has changed in just the last decade and it's taken a toll on our wellbeing. On top of global crises we're also in a severely underpaid field that is under the toxic illusion that we wont leave because we "love our jobs". This webinar is going to get real with the challenges we're facing in our field and beyond, and outline strategies to help us build up resilience while in chronic survival mode.

AASLH Decolonization and the Road to Indigenization Resource Kit: This kit is intended to assist public history practitioners in the decolonization process.

Efforts to Protect and Repatriate Native American Cultural Items and Human Remains: Despite federal legislation calling for their protection and repatriation, cultural items located on federal and Indian lands remain vulnerable to theft, vandalism, and destruction. Moreover, a 2020 report estimated that there are more than 116,000 Native American human remains still in museums and other collections. For Native American Heritage Month, the U.S. Government Accountability Office shares their recent work on federal efforts to protect Native American cultural items.

  *   Eligibility: LOIs must be submitted by a state, local, or Tribal unit of government or similar; nonprofit Main Street programs can encourage local or state governments to apply and be a part of the local partnership.
