Episode 15: How Ghosts Wrote a Law (or, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act)
2021-05-14
In this episode, Augusta and Eva break down how the agency of ghosts and the white fear of the 'Native spirit' led to the passing of a very significant federal law in 1990. We talk about Kennewick Man, haunted Westerns, and why we don't use the word 'traditional' anymore.
