    Study Notes

    Native Americans call for boycott of Plymouth living history museum

    • Native Americans in Massachusetts are calling for a boycott of Plimoth Patuxet Museums, a living history museum in Plymouth, Massachusetts.
    • The museum features Colonial reenactors portraying life in Plymouth, the famous English settlement founded by the Pilgrims who arrived on the Mayflower.
    • Members of the state's Wampanoag community and their supporters say the museum has not lived up to its promise of creating a "bi-cultural museum" that equally tells the story of the European and Indigenous peoples that lived there.
    • The "Historic Patuxet Homesite," the portion of the mostly outdoor museum focused on traditional Indigenous life, is inadequately small, in need of repairs and staffed by workers who aren't from local tribes.
    • Concerns come just two years after the museum changed its name from Plimoth Plantation to Plimoth Patuxet as part of a yearlong celebration of the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower landing.
    • The museum declared the "new, more balanced" moniker reflected the importance of the Indigenous perspective to the museum's educational mission.
    • Museum spokesperson Rob Kluin said the museum has expanded the outdoor Wampanoag exhibit, raised more than $2 million towards a new Indigenous programs building and has "several initiatives in place" to recruit and retain staff from Native communities.
    • Carol Pollard, whose late brother Anthony "Nanepashemet" Pollard played a key role in the development of the museum's Indigenous programming as a leading Wampanoag historian, was among those dismayed at the state of the site.
    • Museum officials for years ignored suggestions for modernizing and expanding the outdoor exhibit, say former museum staffers.
    • Low pay and poor working conditions led to the departure of many long-standing Native staffers who built the program into a must-see attraction by showcasing authentic Indigenous farming, cooking, canoe building and other cultural practices.
    • The Wampanoag Consulting Alliance, a Native group that includes former museum staffers, said in a statement that the museum has systematically dismantled the outdoor exhibit.
    • Many steps taken to provide equal representation to Wampanoag programming have been removed, and the physical exhibit is in deplorable condition, leading to the virtually complete alienation of the Wampanoag communities.
