About this event

The Iowa City Foreign Relations Council and the Iowa City Public Library invite you to join Leah Slick-Driscoll and Stephanie BadSoldier Snow as they discuss efforts the Meskwaki Nation of Iowa are making to elevate Native peoples, especially students, in the areas of food and language.
Culture for the Meskwaki is both a deep source of pride and an important place to contest modern day legacies of colonialism. On this Indigenous Peoples Day, they advocate for a better, less oppressive world, in which sovereignty and revitalization are advanced through celebrated and longstanding “indigenizing” practices.
Doors open at 5:30 p.m. Come for connection and pizza! Please register in advance so organizers can order an appropriate amount of food.
