Is the Metropolitan Museum of Art Displaying Objects That Belong to Native American Tribes?
==
Only a small percentage of works donated by Charles and Valerie Diker have clear ownership histories. Experts say this could mean objects are stolen or fake.
Meanwhile, the Met has been slow to ask tribes for information about the items.

Dozens of Museums and Universities Pledge to Return Native American Remains. Few Have Funded the Effort.
--
Reporting from nearly 50 local newsrooms, based on ProPublica’s “Repatriation Project,” has sparked a wave of apologies and commitment to returning ancestral remains. But without funding for the work tribal nations could still face empty promises.

For decades, #UCBerkeley has been hosting a horrorshow of bones stolen from #Native families, in violation of basic human decency as well as, more recently, state and federal laws.
All so Professor White (!) could perpetuate the colonial anthropological gaze. The university apologized. Professor White hasn’t. Only some of the family members have been returned.

For decades, Dickson Mounds Museum in #Illinois displayed the open graves of more than 200 #Indigenous people.

The remains of more than 110,000 Native American ancestors are still held by museums, universities and federal agencies. This is despite the 1990 US #NAGPRA law which called for remains to be returned to descendants or tribal nations.
What went wrong?
https://www.propublica.org/article/repatriation-nagpra-museums-human-remains
“Three decades after legislation pushed for the return of Native American remains to Indigenous communities, many of the nation’s top museums and universities still have the remains of thousands of people in their collections.”
This database lists every institution that still has remains that must be returned to their respective communities based on federal law.

H.R.2930, the Safeguard Tribal Objects of Patrimony Act of 2021 (STOP Act). The STOP Act now heads to the President’s desk to be signed into law.
The STOP Act builds on the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, a 1990 law that made it illegal to traffic Native American cultural items, funerary objects and objects of patrimony

The items being returned are just a tiny fraction of an estimated 870,000 Native American artifacts — including nearly 110,000 human remains — in the possession of the nation’s most prestigious colleges, museums and even the federal government that under federal law are supposed to be returned to the tribes
