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.

Native America Calling
Listen to Native America Calling every weekday at 1pm Eastern.
