The third annual Trading Stories: a Native American Film Festival was hosted at the Chadron Public Library in July. Library Director Rossella Tesch and Marguerite Vey-Miller, from the Chadron Public Library Foundation, will talk about the 5 day event which included presentations, movies, food, discussions, guest artists, and a story time in Lakota. The highlight of the festival was the premiere of the Nebraska Public TV film Medicine Woman, a documentary that interweaves the lives of Native American women healers of today with the story of America’s first Native doctor, Susan La Flesche Picotte (1865-1915). The film will air nationally on PBS in November.

Vacation in the Third Space: Chinese tourists travelling on a European Cruise...Chen Tian
This is a presentation I gave on 1 February 2018 at the “Africa-China/China-Africa mobilities” workshop at the University of Cologne. In "Vacation in the Third Space: Chinese tourists travelling on a European cruise to African islands", I ponder the issue of cross-cultural communication and understanding, drawing on the concept of “Third Space” (Bhabha, 1994). In the case presented, Chinese tourists, the Asian staff on the cruise ship, and residents of the islands visited (Mauritius, Seychelles, and the Reunion island) were able to create a ‘Third Space’ and engage in genuine conversations, despite cultural differences and ignorance.

In this session the second cohort of Academic and Cultural Enrichment (ACE) Scholars facilitate a dialogue on diversity issues that impact equity and inclusivity in the library and information field and services. Four diversity issues will be introduced through “ignite”presentations, during which experiences, perspectives, challenges and strategies and best practices related to the issues will be discussed, and will conclude with group summaries of strategies. Using a critical lens and in conversation with these recent MLIS graduates (16-20), diversity concerns and barriers in the profession will be uncovered. This proposed session is an exercise in collaborative learning and in connecting theory and practice around diversity and libraries. - Jennifer Herring, Mari Noguchi, and Touger Vang, ACE Scholars

What is cultural appropriation?
Cultural appropriation is the adoption
or theft of icons, rituals, aesthetic standards,
and behavior from one culture or subculture
by another. It generally is applied when the
subject culture is a minority culture or some-
how subordinate in social, political, econom-
ic, or military status to the appropriating
culture. This “appropriation” often occurs
without any real understanding of why the
original culture took part in these activities
or the meanings behind these activities, of-
ten converting culturally significant artifacts,
practices, and beliefs into “meaningless”
pop-culture or giving them a significance
that is completely different/less nuanced
than they would originally have had.

Why does cultural
appropriation happen?
Cultural appropriation is a by-product of imperialism,
capitalism, oppression, and assimilation. Imperialism is the
creation and maintenance of an unequal cultural, economic,
and territorial relationship, usually between states and often
in the form of an empire, based on domination and subor-
dination. Imperialism functions by subordinating groups
of people and territories and extracting everything of value
from the colonized people and territories. In the case of cul-
tural appropriation, culture is treated as a “natural resource”
to extract from People of Color.
Cultural appropriation is profitable. Objects and tradi-
tions (but not the people) of marginalized cultures are seen
by the dominant culture as exotic, edgy, and desirable, which
translates to profits. Capitalism works best when people are
not individual people with celebrated differences, but iden-
tical workers, cogs in the machine. Once diverse cultural
identities are stripped away, the only culture left to identify
with is capitalist culture.
This is one aspect of assimilation, in which marginal-
ized communities lose their cultural markers and are folded
into the dominant culture. The process of assimilation is
sped up when culture markers are appropriated by the domi-
nant culture. Once the dominant culture has access to the
cultural markers of a marginalized culture, they are no lon-
ger markers of the marginalized culture, and the marginal-
ized culture is gobbled up by the dominant culture.

Why is cultural appropriation so
harmful?
Cultural appropriation is harmful because it is an ex-
tension of centuries of racism, genoci.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Cultural Syncretism
“ cultural syncretism which is the adoption of
one culture into another culture generally
through colonisation and immigration; “
3. Cultural appropriation
• “happens when people from a more powerful
culture adopt the art, symbols, or elements of
a less powerful culture without understanding
or respecting the context or history of that
material.”
6. • “generation after generation, African American
slang gets incorporated into mainstream white
slang. At one point in this process, it's straight up
cultural appropriation. But there does come a
moment when enough white people are using
the slang, that other white people are picking it
up from whites in their own communities,
without necessarily knowing its origin. At that
point, it's already fused into the mainstream
culture and the less "cutting edge" whites
really aren't appropriating it ... because it's
already thoroughly appropriated.”
7. “While we should be concerned about
appropriation (especially certain manifestations
of it), we should also be cognizant of some of
the negative ramifications that can arise from
the indiscriminate or overzealous use of the
concept”.
-Julia Serano
8. • Erasure as “Marginalized/minority groups have little power or
voice in society. Therefore, when the dominant/majority group
takes up their identities, ideas, and other cultural creations, it
tends to undermine or erase the context in which they were
created, and the original meanings and symbolism that underlie
them.”
•
• Exploitation: “Sometimes members of the dominant/majority
group will materially profit from aspects or acts that they have
appropriated from a marginalized/minority group without ever
giving anything back to that community.”
•
•
Denigration: “to treat or represent as lacking in value or
importance; belittle,” which applies to instances where
important or sacred aspects of the marginalized/minority
group’s identity or culture are appropriated by the
dominant/majority group in an irreverent or disrespectful
manner
9. Trans appropriation (EED and non EED)

10. Just a reminder
• EED appropriation =
Erasure
Exploitation
Denigration
