Moderator: Prof. Christian Fuhrmeister  | Participants: Dr. Mirjam Brusius, Nana Oforiatta Ayim, Dr. Natalia Romik 

A panel featuring 2022 Dan David Prize winners Mirjam Brusius (museum artifacts in global and colonial contexts), Nana Oforiatta Ayim (reconnecting with African ways of historicizing and displaying the past)  and Natalia Romik (rediscovering lost Jewish lives in Eastern Europe), exploring how material traces of the past were preserved, erased, or taken out of context, and how those contexts can be recreated, whether through repatriating antique objects and rediscovering their contexts, through reimagining museums to decouple them from their colonial heritage, or recreating sites of Jewish life and survival in places where they were systematically erased. History Day panels were held on May 10, 2022 at the Steinhardt Museum of Natural History in Tel Aviv as part of the 2022 Dan David Prize award ceremony events.
