[Who tells your history? What should we use history for? Can history provide a perspective on today? Who has power over history?]

More thought-provoking and challenging displays from the Swedish Historical Museum coming this week, submitted by xanthy-m!

Reader xanthy-m has submitted more photos from a visit to the Swedish Historical Museum (official website), including displays on historiography, Vikings, Roma and Travelers in Sweden, the racialization of the Saami, Nazi propaganda, and the history of scientific racism. These images will be organized into topical posts coming out periodically this week along with usual art history articles and essays. I hope you all will find them as insightful and provocative as I do.
