First Nations Secret/Sacred Cultural Material
This entry refers broadly to digital secret and sacred cultural material and documentation of First Nations peoples’ heritage in all forms of media. This can include born-digital materials directly or indirectly produced as outputs of research, community projects, oral histories, private or personal recordings, and/or data in databases and online platforms which have not been sustained or future-proofed.
Oral Histories
Oral histories including both audio and audiovisual (video and sound), and their accompanying transcripts and/or time-pointed summaries.
Politically Sensitive Data
Digital content where the knowledge to preserve exists, and there is no threat to obsolescence, but where political interests may be served by elimination, falsification or concealment.
