Whichever way you look at it, there's only one way to describe Poland's history: it's complicated. From endlessly shifting borders to even disappearing off the map entirely for 123 years, Poland has incurred a tremendous amount of change and trauma on political, territorial, economic, and cultural fronts. As we approach the 100th anniversary of Poland's reconstitution in 1918, the National Museum in Krakow urges us to join in on the ever-evolving discussion of Polish identity with their '#heritage' exhibit. The exhibit explores the concepts of cultural continuity and national identity through an anthropological and historical lens, with a strong focus on four defining elements: territory, citizens, language, and custom. The not-so-subtle use of the hashtag in the title is a way to call attention to the subject itself in the context of the 21st century.
