The Metro

What the archives of bureaucracy can tell us about colonial administration in the U.S. today


Listen Later

Evidence of colonization in the United States is stored in filing cabinets and archives of bureaucracy, and is still evident in the U.S. government today.

Maggie Blackhawk, a scholar of colonialism, imperialism, and American Indian history joined The Metro to discuss what we can learn from the bureaucratic records of the past to better understand colonialism in the U.S. and Michigan.

Listen to The Metro weekdays from 10 a.m. to noon ET on 101.9 FM and streaming on demand.
