Meeting 2 (24 March, 1pm AEDT)

Meeting 2 was held online via zoom on 24 March at 1:00pm - 2:00pm AEDT.

We discussed:

Jessica Tai (2020), 'Cultural Humility as a Framework for Anti-Oppressive Archival Description', Journal of Critical Library and Information Studies, Vol 3: Radical Empathy in Archival Practice (Pre-Prints), URL: https://journals.litwinbooks.com/index.php/jclis/article/view/120.

Facilitator: Kirsten

We spoke about the idea of cultural humility as a framework generally and what this meant for archives, whether an approach like this was practical in all circumstances, the fact that redescription work is done as a project and the implications of this for archival labour, and how a framework like this may benefit from a community of practice or mentoring relationships to assist in implementation.
