This is the very first object in our @nmaahc’s collection: a boat seat from Ecuador.
What’s it doing in our newest museum? It’s from a community that fled into the swamps to escape slavery, traveling mainly by canoe, where it was the job of elderly women to carve the boat seats. This one features Anansi the spider.
Anansi is a common character in West African folklore, but these tales spread through the Transatlantic slave trade, bringing Anansi to the U.S. and places like Ecuador.
So this one object tells a much bigger story of the African diaspora, and how the African American experience connects to others around the globe.
This week we’ll be highlighting objects in @nmaahc as we gear up for its opening this Saturday, Sept. 24. #APeoplesJourney
