SUMMARY:Inlandia Institutes presents - Know We Are Here: Voices of Native California Resistance
DESCRIPTION:FREE • Arts Walk • Thursday\, November 2 • 7–8 PM\, doors open at 6:30\nRiverside Public Library Community Room\n3900 Mission Inn Avenue\, Riverside 92501\nCollecting over twenty-five essays written by more than fifteen California Indian  authors\, Know We Are Here surveys many of the ways California’s Indigenous communities are resisting the legacies of genocide. Focusing on the particular histories\, challenges\, and dynamics of life in Native California—which are often very different from elsewhere in the United States—the book collects essays from writers across the state. It encompasses the perspectives of both elders and the rising generation\, and the contributors include activists\, academics\, students\, memoirists\, and tribal leaders. \nThe collection examines histories of resistance to colonialism in California\, the reclaiming of cultures and languages\, the connection of place and nature to wellness in tribal communities\, efforts to overhaul the racist presentation of California Indians in classrooms and popular culture\, and the meanings of solidarity in Native California. Unifying the book is an introduction by Terria Smith\, editor of the renowned and long-running magazine News from Native California. This book is an indispensable resource for California Indian readers\, educators of all levels in California\, and students in Native studies courses nationally. \nThe library will also provide an array of books by Indigenous authors available for check out. Don’t have a library card? You can get one on the spot! \nFree and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.

Learn more at oxy.edu/community-book-program. \nBefore the lecture\, engage with Oxy Arts fall exhibition\, The Iridescence of Knowing\, a group exhibition exploring the rich lineage of Indigenous cultural production in Tovaangar\, known today as the greater Los Angeles basin. \nABOUT THE PANELISTS\nSamantha Morales Johnson (she/her) is an Afro-indigenous (Gabrielino/Tongva) multidisciplinary artist\, environmental scientist\, and learning ethnobotanist. She received her B.S. in marine biology before attending graduate school for her certificate in science illustration. Samantha has worked with institutions like Pitzer college creating illustrated educational material for 4th and 5th grade environmental science curriculum aligning with California science standards and traditional Indigenous environmental knowledge. She has also created material around and speaks often on the campaign Protect White Sage\, a social media initiative hoping to bring awareness to wild white sage poaching in the incense and spirituality movement. She focuses on educational artwork\, traditional craft making like basket weaving\, and environmental science. As a basket weaver\, she’s learning ethnobotany\, land care\, and restorative justice. Samantha’s work is inspired by resistance against climate change and the colonist roots underneath the environmental distresses we experience today. \nTina Calderon\, Culture Bearer https://lariverpublicartproject.org/info Tina is of Gabrielino Tongva\, Chumash and Yoeme descent. She is a singer\, songwriter\, poet\, traditional dancer and storyteller. She is wife\, mother\, grandmother\, sister and auntie to many.

Instagram @lalas_song \nBryce Lewis-Smith\, graduate of Occidental College\, is a Potawatomi environmentalist at Better World Group with a passion for Tribal Sovereignty\, environmental justice\, and climate action. He recently graduated with his Masters in Marine and Environmental Affairs from the University of Washington and is a member of the Potawatomi Dreaming Collective which is working on reconnecting diasporic Citizen Potawatomi Nation Tribal members back with traditional Anishinaabe Aki\, traditions\, and ceremony. His research focuses on the interplay of kinship responsibilities and climate resiliency. \nJesus Alvarez\, is the President of the Tataviam Land Conservancy. Mr. Alvarez obtained a B.A. in Education in 1993 and spent his career after college working in early childhood education. He currently serves as a Financial Aid Representative for California State University Northridge. As a Lifelong resident of the San Fernando Valley\, Jesus volunteers with various educational programs for the Tataviam Tribe and groups throughout the San Fernando Valley. Jesus’ love of the land and enjoyment of the natural world led him to become a member of the TLC. Through its work\, Jesus would like to increase understanding of California’s native flora and to preserve it for future generations by developing programs that promote the use of locally native and regionally appropriate plants throughout Tataviam homelands in projects as small as personal gardens or as large as regional commercial projects. California State University of Northridge Institute of Sustainability and Programs and Inclusion are collaborating with Jesus to have input in tribal representation of its grounds. He is a member of Mapping Los Angeles Landscape History Project and California Rare Fruit Growers. Jesus spends his weekends gardening\, grafting\, and practicing other horticultural techniques. It is common to be given a plant he has grown from seed or clippings. \n  \nArtwork featured: The Land Reflects the History I-III\, 2023\, by Samantha Morales-Johnson. Ink on paper. 9x12in.

SUMMARY:Know We Are Here: Native Visibility in the University
DESCRIPTION:UC Berkeley\, which sits on native territory and was built with funds from stolen native lands\, has a dishearteningly low representation of Native American undergraduate students\, accounting for just 0.04% of the student body. The Native students who do gain admission to Berkeley must confront a culture that often negates indigenous forms of knowledge\, all while housing thousands of native human remains intended for scholarly study. This panel aims to delve into the challenges and experiences that Native individuals have faced navigating the university system.Additionally\, the discussion will touch upon relevant themes presented in the new anthology Know We Are Here: Voices of Native California Resistance\, edited by UC Berkeley alum Terria Smith M.J. ‘12. \n\nSpeakers/Panelists: Andrés Cediel\, Corrina Gould (Lisjan Ohlone)\, Phenocia Bauerle\, Dr. Rose Soza War Soldier (Mountain Maidu/Cahuilla/Luiseño\, enrolled member of Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians)\, Terria Smith (Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians) \n\nPlease register in advance. \n\n\n\nHosted by UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism\, Native American Student Development
