Heritage in Action at the Pauli Murray Center

Summary

This is an abstract from the "Activating Heritage: Encouraging Substantive Practices for a Just Future" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Rather than argue that heritage does things, this paper explores what might happen when archaeologists (to borrow a phrase from J L Austin) “do things with heritage.” Specifically, I use the points raised by Patricia Hill Collins in her weaving together of pragmatics and intersectionality to frame a discussion of archaeology and heritage at the childhood home of human rights activist Pauli Murray.
