What is it like to come from two “opposing” tribes? How do you stay connected to your ancestral lands when they have been heavily urbanized? How can we combat anti-Blackness in our communities? How do we honor all of our many religious, ethnic, and racial identities? What do Indigenous identities look like in the 21st Century?

This panel, moderated by Sharen Kickingwoman and featuring Mercedes Dorame, JaNae Collins, Denae Shanidiin, Sam Slater, and Kohar Avakian, will explore these questions and discuss the contemporary experiences of Indigenous peoples in North America with multiple and intersecting cultural backgrounds. These artists, activists, students, and more will reflect on the beauty and complexity of being Native in 2020.
