    The American Archive of Public Broadcasting (AAPB), a collaboration between the Library of Congress and GBH, has a new online exhibit that might be useful for classroom teachers and projects that use primary sources.

    Native Narratives: The Representation of Native Americans in Public Broadcasting explores how Native American peoples and cultures have been represented both in non-Native-produced and Native-created public broadcasting programs in the AAPB collection. Each section features a range of radio and television programs that cover key events or issues important to Native peoples. Additionally, the exhibit explores how mainstream American public media and media produced by Native Americans depict and document Native peoples in ways that either confirm or reject stereotypes.

    The exhibit was curated by Sally Smith, a former student assistant in the Peabody Awards Archive at the University of Georgia and a 2019 Library of Congress Junior Fellow in the Recorded Sound Section of the MBRS Division. She is a current MSLS student at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

    Exhibit sections include the following:

    • (Mis)representations of Native Americans
    • Termination, Relocation, and Restoration
    • The American Indian Movement
    • Native Americans in Contemporary News Media
    • Visual Sovereignty: Native Created Public Media

    Native America Calling.
