Abstract

Social and racial justice protests in 2020 continue to have repercussions across California and the country. For California State Parks, this has meant taking stock of and critically Reexamining Our Past memorializing efforts, looking specifically at contested histories related to place names, honorifics, and interpretation in our nearly one-hundred-year-old State Park system. To address the complexity of this historic legacy, California State Parks is engaging with California Tribal Nation culture-bearers, public historians, and other experts across interdisciplinary fields to guide changes needed to ensure California for All truly reflects the diverse, inclusive, and historically accurate telling of California’s history in our state parks.
