Abstract	Museums are indeed very painful sites for Native people, as they are intimately tied to the colonization process. The museum world has changed significantly from the days when they were considered "ivory towers of exclusivity" to today when Indigenous people are actively involved in making museums more open and community-relevant sites. In this article, the author discusses how museums have changed over the years. She also discusses how Native Americans have witnessed a shift from curator-controlled presentations of the American Indian past to a more inclusive or collaborative process with Indian people actively involved in determining exhibition content.
