Native America Calling: Correcting the record with inclusion and accuracy
Thursday, April 15, 2021
There are plenty of warnings about the accuracy of information on publicly-edited online sources like Wikipedia, but those are one of the first places people go to research a topic.
The National Museum of the American Indian is hosting a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon. They want to add entries to the public online encyclopedia, specifically on Native women.
Organizers maintain entries are often inaccurate, one-sided or missing. Native America Calling will talk about the state of accurate representation and inclusion in online educational and research resources.
