Short Description: This presentation is an Indigenous autoethnographic study of a family’s story of survival through the Native American boarding school system.
This presentation is an Indigenous autoethnographic study of a family’s story of survival through the Native American boarding school system. Although this project was in a part an academic exercise, it was also an effort to reclaim pieces of a family’s experience that was purposefully silenced and erased from mainstream hegemonic nationalist narratives.
It is presented in partnership with Ohio State Newark Earthworks Center, American Indian Studies and the Department of History.
Featured speaker:
- Melissa Beard Jacob, PhD, Intercultural Specialist, Native American and Indigenous Student Initiatives, Office of Student Life Multicultural Center
