The first quarter century of the self-determination era featured many great successes but mostly great frustrations often caused by federal reluctance to empower tribal nations. The second quarter century featured the rise of tribal political and economic power\, but many of the same frustrations\, this time more often caused by judicial decisions. As always\, Indigenous leaders look to both the past and the future in consequential decisions for their nations. This symposium brings together many of today's most influential Indigenous leaders to assess the last fifty years and imagine what the next quarter century brings. Panelists include Indigenous elected officials\, judges\, and lawyers at the federal\, state\, and Tribal levels.\n\nWashington Supreme Court Justice Raquel Montoya-Lewis\, a citizen of the Pueblo of Laguna\, will deliver a keynote address on Saturday.\n\nPanel 1\, “The Past and Future of Indigenous Politics\,”\nFriday\, February 21 - Palmer Commons Forum Hall 1:30 – 3:00 PM\,\nThis panel will discuss the past and future of Indigenous people in politics and their service in elected or appointed political offices in the US state or federal government.\nSpeakers are:\n Bryan Newland is Assistant Secretary of the Interior for Indian Affairs and a citizen of the Bay Mills Indian Community.\nJeff Irwin is an elected member of the Michigan Senate and citizen of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians.\n\nPanel 2\, “Lawyering Tribal Self-Determination\,”\nFriday\, February 21 - Palmer Commons Forum Hall 3:15 – 4:45 PM\,\nThis panel will address the underrepresentation of Indigenous people in law. Fifty years ago\, few Indigenous people were lawyers\, and almost no tribe was represented by Indigenous lawyers or law firms. Although there are many more Indigenous lawyers\, they are still terribly underrepresented in the field. This panel of Indigenous lawyers will discuss their professional journeys and the profession's future\nSpeakers are:\nWenona T. Singel is an Associate Professor of Law at Michigan State Law School and a citizen of the Little Traverse Bay Band of Odawa Indians \nDoreen Nanibaa McPaul is In-house counsel for Tohono O’Odham Nation\, leader of the Tribal In-House Counsel Association\, and citizen of the Navajo Nation.\nMitchell Forbes is a Staff Attorney at the Native American Rights Fund and a citizen of the Native Village of Shishmaref\n\nPanel 3\, “Indigenous Judging in Tribal and State Courts\,”\nSaturday\, February 22 - Michigan Union Anderson ABCD 10:00 – 11:30 AM\nPanel 3 will discuss Indigenous presence on the court. In 1975\, few Indigenous people served as judges in federal\, state\, and tribal courts. Now\, many Indigenous judges serve tribal communities\, but only a few serve federal and state court systems. This panel will address the past and future of Indigenous judging.\nSpeakers are: \nGregory H. Bigler is a Tribal judge\, lawyer\, and citizen of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation\nAllie Greenleaf Maldonado is a Judge of the Michigan Court of Appeals and citizen of the Little Traverse Bay Band of Odawa Indians\n\nKeynote Address: \n\"Descendant Daughter\" by Justice Raquel Montoya-Lewis.\nSaturday\, February 22 - Michigan Union Pendleton Room 12:30 – 1:45 PM\nJustice Raquel Montoya-Lewis is a Justice of the Washington Supreme Court\, a citizen of the Pueblo of Isleta\, and a descendant of the Pueblo of Laguna.\n\nPanel 4\, “International Indigenous Leadership”\nSaturday\, February 22 - Michigan Union Pendleton Room 2:00 – 3:30 PM\nwith Kyle Powys Whyte and Kristen Carpenter\,\nThis panel examines Indigenous participation in international spheres. Fifty years ago\, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples was barely a dream. It is a reality\; however\, the United States lags behind in its implementation. This panel will address the future of international law principles regarding Indigenous peoples in the U.S.\nSpeakers are:\nKyle Powys Whyte is George Willis Pack Professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability and University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.
