When River Kerstetter was asked about three years ago to help curate an exhibit at the Newberry Library focused on Native Americans and pop culture titled “Native Pop!,” she recognized the importance of showcasing contemporary representations of Native American history. The exhibit highlights how comics and video games serve as modern storytelling tools, bridging the gap between past and present.
Kerstetter emphasized that Native American history is not confined to ancient times but is an ongoing narrative that continues to evolve. By incorporating various forms of pop culture, the exhibit aims to challenge stereotypes and provide a more nuanced understanding of Native identities today.
Visitors can expect to see a diverse range of artworks and interactive displays that celebrate Native voices and creativity. This innovative approach not only engages a wider audience but also encourages dialogue about the complexities of Native American experiences in contemporary society. “Native Pop!” ultimately serves as a reminder that history is alive and relevant, resonating through the cultural expressions of today.
