Panel Discussion: the Sullivan-Clinton Campaign

The Indigenous Values Initiative presents a panel discussion via Facebook Live on the Sullivan-Clinton Campaign on Saturday, October 10 from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Through an Indigenous perspective of history, this panel seeks to disrupt the US colonial narrative of domination to elevate Indigenous voices and the rights of nature. This panel will highlight how xenophobia, racism, sexism and climate change are side effects of having created an “imperfect” union by excluding the crucial role of women and our responsibility of living in proper relationship with the natural world.

Scholars from religion, anthropology, transnational studies, history and Native American studies join with Jake Edwards of the Onondaga Nation to assess the 240 years of harm.
