Au Canada - Un musée des civilisations transformé en musée de l’histoire pour glorifier les batailles... #bigfail précisent les membres de l’association des enseignants...
Here is one little discussed gem, which certainly goes to the meaning of history and how we reflect on its narratives, brought to our attention by the Canadian University Teachers Association (hardly a bastian of hard line ’crits’) but which should give pretty deep cause to concern about anyone with a ’critical’ view of anything: The Canadian government is dis-assembling key exhibits on social and cultural history and transforming the (museum formerly known as) Museum of Civilization and replacing with a Museum of History, seemingly dedicated to glorifying military battles.
