We are happy to invite you to this conversation between Mallory Whiteduck (American Culture) and Raya Naamneh (Comparative Literature) to comparatively and critically discuss indigeneity and the experiences of living under settler colonialism in both North America and Palestine. Thinking through these two fragmented geopolitical spaces, we hope to discuss the relevance of this transnational connection for the understanding of indigenous experiences and forms of anti-colonial resistance, past and present.

The event will include food and light refreshments.
