Last week, I presented about reclaiming academia through indigeneity at IndiGENcon. Being able to introduce myself in my native language with my Indigenous name in front of other Indigenous knowledge-seekers is a feeling I won’t soon forget. 🖤 Thank you @GenProgram! – at Norman, OK
ALT A photo of myself presenting at a podium on stage with a presentation slide that reads, “Our ancestors are the original stewards of knowledge on this land.”
We'd love to hear from you! If you were able to attend #IndiGENcon, we'd love for you to share something that you'll take away from the event.

Singing the praises of GEN staff @miss_smallpond and Julia Guerrero for their incredible job behind and in front of the scenes of #IndiGENcon. They had a vision for this event and executed it with grace and creativity. Bravo, ladies!
