DHPSNY Dialogue | Telling Complete and Inclusive Stories
The DHPSNY Antiracism Programming in 2024 is structured around both the AASLH Making History at 250 Field Guide and the New York State 250th Field Guide. Our guiding question for 2024 is: How do we make our collecting organizations interdisciplinary and representative of the realities of our many New York histories?
New York State is the home to much of the nation’s historical memory about issues and topics we still discuss and debate today, including immigration, LGBTQ+ rights and safety, segregation, incarceration, human rights, and Indigenous genocide, among other things. This program invites participants to identify revolutionary moments in our own local histories and experiences that build on topics and issues relevant to our collective past and our contemporary experiences. The September program is designed for anyone who works in or volunteers for a library, archive, museum, historical society, or history/culture site in New York State.
