He was working with blind people in an attempt iii CLS Journal of Museum Studies, Volume 8, Number 1 to make their visits to the Air and Space Museum more meaningful. You need to know that in Air and Space, most of the aircraft are hanging from a very high ceiling, perhaps 40 feet above the visitor’s head. How does one make such objects meaningful to visitors who lack sight? As a test, the museum produced a miniature copy of the Wright Flyer, the first ever airplane, and the one that lead to the marvelous array of airships and rockets and spaceships that we have today after the Wright brothers sailed over the Kill Devil Hills and into history in 1903. A blind person testing the model noted that the model was excellent and gave him a good feel for the airplane, but he said it only had meaning if it were placed exactly below, and in the exact same position, as the original Wright Flyer hanging from the ceiling. At that point the model became a real reflection of the plane and the visitor was able to experience the “real” Wright Flyer. Such is the power of the real object. Museums separate themselves from other organizations in that museums are all about the original objects. In the Sam Noble Museum, these may range from the largest ceratopsian dinosaur (Pentaceratops, pictured above) to the oldest and smallest ceratopsian, Aquilops, which was described only this December.

To Klah, the future of traditional Diné religious practice appeared bleak, and the opportunity to collaborate with a sympathetic outsider such as Wheelwright was appealing and necessary. Wheelwright and Klah sensed mutual trust and quickly became close friends. It was not long before they determined to create a permanent record of Klah’s and other singers’ knowledge, and in this effort, they were joined by Frances (“Franc”) Newcomb. Klah dictated and Wheelwright recorded the Diné Creation Story and other important narratives that form the basis of Diné religion.

  • Native American Church
    Native American Traditions Native American Church Native American Church Summary: The Native American Church of Jesus Christ is a spiritual movement that integrates the teachings of Christian life with the spiritual and ethical traditions of various Native cultures. A central component of the Native American Church is the sacramental ingestion of peyote during peyote meetings. In 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the ritual ingestion of peyote is not a legally protected practice, despite its religious significance. The Native American Church of Jesus Christ is the full name of a widespread spiritual movement that integrates the teachings of Christian life with the spiritual and ethical traditions of various Native cultures regarding the sacramental ingestion of peyote. For some participants, the Christian context is important, but for others the Native American Church is much more an affirmation of Indian religious identity. While the visionary effect of the peyote cactus button has captured the imagination of many psychedelic spiritual seekers, it is critical that those who would understand the ceremonial use of peyote situate this sacramental tradition within the rigorous ethical way of life taught by the Native American Church. Many church members believe that a narrow perception of peyote as simply an hallucinogen or “drug” informed the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1990 decision in Employment Division of Oregon v. Smith. In the Smith case, two Native Americans had been fired from their state jobs in Oregon because they participated in a peyote ceremony of the Native American Church. Peyote had been listed as a proscribed drug in the state.

  • A Review of a Culture's Catalyst: Historical Encounters with Peyote and the Native American Church in Canada
    IK: Other Ways of Knowing Book Review A Review of A Culture’s Catalyst: Historical Encounters with Peyote and the Native American Church in Canada Book Review by Kevin Feeney PhD. JD, Central Washington University A Culture’s Catalyst: Historical Encounters with Peyote and the Native American Church in Canada by Kahan, Fannie, edited by Erika Dyck. 2016. Winnipeg, MB: University of Manitoba Press. 130 pp. Paperback $27.95. ISBN 978-0887558146 doi 10.18113/P8ik360543 Fannie Kahan’s new book, A Culture’s Catalyst, provides a novel glimpse into an era when psychedelic research was at its peak, and when social fears about psychedelics were limited to the imagined orgies of peyote cults. Kahan’s original manuscript was completed back in 1963, but failed efforts at finding a publisher left the book gathering dust in the archives of the author’s brother, Abram Hoffer. The manuscript remained buried in papers until it was uncovered by historian Erika Dyck during investigations on the history of psychedelic research in Canada. Dyck has brought this manuscript to light by editing it for clarity and uniformity, and providing an in-depth introduction contextualizing Kahan’s work within the political landscape of the 1950s and early 1960s. Kahan’s book is largely built around a Native American Church peyote ceremony held during 1956 in North Battleford, Sasketchewan. A handful of White scientists attended the ceremony, including book contributors Duncan Blewett, Abram Hoffer, Humphry Osmond, and Teodoro Weckowicz. Kahan, who is a journalist by training, has assembled and presented what might best be characterized as a defense of peyotism, the religious use of peyote, with a text that veers between reporting and editorializing.

  • A Long Strange Trip: Latin America's Contribution to World Drug Culture
    e l e v e n A Long Strange Trip latin america’s contribution to world drug culture Paul Gootenberg Perhaps it’s risky, even foolhardy, for a historian to suggest that drugs are one of Latin America’s enduring contributions to world culture. Today, “drugs” mostly conjures up cocaine, meth, addiction, corruption, traf- fickers, DEA drug wars, and the unfathomably brutal bloodletting along the northern borders of Mexico. It also suggests the unfortunate tendency of (North) Americans to blame their intemperate desires for consuming drugs on evil foreigners, the Pablo Escobars and Chapo Guzmáns, or wily “cartels” (a term that makes specialists cringe). It also serves to sweep under the rug the complicity of our institutions and badly conceived drug laws and policies— namely, global drug prohibition—in igniting the kinds of mayhem that have afflicted places like Colombia, Peru, and Mexico in recent decades. So, here, I’d like to step back and suggest as a corrective a few less sensationalistic, less ahistorical, less U.S.-centric points: the richer, longer cornucopia of mind- altering goods the Americas have offered the world; some of the changing historical entanglements of these drugs with global culture; and, most recently, promising new shifts, coming from the Global “South,” on how to rethink our bellicose current posture on illicit drugs. This long trip through hemispheric drugs is rich in historical ironies. psychedelic civilizations Thousands of years ago, prehistoric Americans invented what the ethnobota- nist Winston LaBarre termed the “American drug complex,” the world’s wid- est and wildest menu of psychotropic drugs.

    Interactive Model of Santa Fe Indian School Campus for Community Planning and Education An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science Submitted by: Mikayla Filippone Zachary Rahl Joseluis Velez Eric Zandrow Project Advisors: Sponsoring Agency: On Site Liaisons: Fabio Carrera Santa Fe Indian School Kimball Sekaquaptewa Scott Barton Matt Pecos Website: https://sites.google.com/site/sf2015sfis Email: [email protected] [email protected] This report represents the work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, please see http://www.wpi.edu/academics/ugradstudies/project-learning.html Abstract The Santa Fe Indian School is looking for new means to remember the past and imagine the future. We developed a framework for a 3D model and digital archive for the past campus of SFIS and a 3D model for planning purposes. We recommend giving the students the opportunity to further their education in technologies and methods used to continue these projects. 1 Executive Summary With plans for expansion after consequences due to demolition of the old campus, the Santa Fe Indian School (SFIS) has plans for expanding education within the curriculum for the purpose of developing ways of presenting future plans to the community. In addition, information regarding the old campus was not collected, and later lost with the demolition. SFIS needs a system of gathering information for this issue to not occur in the future.

This was the most elegant and meticulous publication on American Indian art ever offered for sale. Its publication came at a time when American Indian art of the West and Southwest was prominent in the public imagination. Of particular interest to the art world in that decade were the new watercolors being made by Kiowa and Pueblo artists; a place was being made for their display within the realm of the American “fine arts” traditions in museums and art galleries all over the country.
