Presenters from seven university offices and the University libraries talk about sources of internal funding and other programs to support research and teaching, with opportunities to support collaboration with community, across disciplines and borders. Faculty, staff, and graduate students working with advisors who can support their work are invited; programs discussed are open to each of these groups. Registration is required.

About the Event:

 Join this dialogue about the experience (current and historical) of violence in the bodies of women and the feminization of structural violence. We will discuss the impact of US government policies on violence in Colombia and the proposals from the women of the People's Congress of the Colombian social movement to resist and build Popular Power and an anti-patriarchal society.

We are still beginning to understand the full impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on the United States, but it is already clear that the disease has disproportionately affected immigrant, Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian American and Pacific Islander communities. Many are at the frontlines of "essential" industries and have been at greater risk of infection and mortality. Some have been in industries that have shut down or greatly contracted during the pandemic. Others have been at the forefront of increased PPE distribution and vaccine development.

Presented in partnership with the Mellon Environmental Stewardship, Place, and Community Initiative
 

As a follow-up to “Beyond Assimilation and Resistance: Očhéti Šakówiŋ Peoplehood Past, Present, and Future,” the recent IAS presentation with Christopher Pexa, Jim Rock, and Waŋblí Mayášleča (Francis Yellow), the IAS invites you to join us for an informal discussion on Chris Pexa’s book Translated Nation: Rewriting the Dakhóta Oyáte. 

Featuring:
Chris Pexa, American Indian Studies, CLA
Jim Rock, Dakhóta scholar
