Environmental History Seminar

Panel: Native American Environmental History

Lisa Brooks, Amherst College; Strother Roberts, Bowdoin College; Ashley Smith, Hampshire College; Thomas Wickman, Trinity College
Moderator: Cedric Woods, Institute for New England Native American Studies, University of Massachusetts Boston
Tuesday, October 9, 2018, 5:15PM - 7:30PM

This panel will explore the intersections of environmental history and indigenous studies—the questions that each field engenders in the other, as well as the perspectives that native and non-native scholars bring to their research as they traverse both fields. Questions of race, gender, geography, and sources enliven this growing body of scholarship. Join us for a stimulating and wide-ranging conversation on these and other topics.
