Curating with Care: Transparency in Museums with Lisa Saladino Haney

The story of natural history museums and their relationship to ancient objects, but also people, is entangled with colonialism and capitalism. How should modern curators begin unravelling such a tangled web? In this episode, Dr. Lisa Saladino Haney joins Chelsea and Melissa to discuss her curatorial work with the Egyptian collection at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh. Listen in as Dr. Haney talks about connecting collections and source communities, respectful treatment of human remains in museum collections, and the patience required to address these issues with the care they require.
