Emerging out of a three-year National Science Foundation grant (2014-17), the book turns a critical eye toward the growing inclusion of the formerly enslaved within these museums, specifically examining advances but also continuing inequalities in how they narrate and memorialize the formerly enslaved. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eUsing assemblage theory as a framework, \u003ci\u003eRemembering Enslavement\u003c\/i\u003e offers an innovative approach for studying heritage sites, retelling and remapping the ways that slavery and the enslaved are included in southern plantation museums. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt examines multiple plantation sites across geographic areas, considering the experiences of a diversity of actors: tourists, museum managers\/owners, and tour guides\/interpreters. This approach allows for an understanding of regional variations among plantation museums, narratives, and performances, as well as more in-depth study of the plantation tour experience and public interpretations. The authors conclude the book with a set of questions designed to help professionals reassemble plantation museum narratives and landscapes to more justly position the formerly enslaved at their center.","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46417180197015,"sku":"9780820360942","price":4390.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780820360942.webp?v=1769066636","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/remembering-enslavement-reassembling-the-southern-plantation-museum-9780820360942","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
