“Thank you so much for the fantastic workshop on Indian Country that you all organized yesterday. The readings were so helpful in grounding us in a stronger understanding of the history of US-Native American relations. Loved how you brought clothing, books, and other Native American resources to the tables. And so appreciate the do-it-yourself lunch process! Great energy, great learning, and a great time to reconnect with Girlfriends. Thank you again!” - Deborah

We learned so much at our Indian Country 101 workshop. Leaders Barbara, Kathy, and Jody guided us in discussions about thought-provoking topics and shared visuals and resources to keep us thinking about Indian Country and where we go from here. They are working on a resource list that will be shared with the membership in the near future. If you couldn’t attend the workshop, we strongly recommend you dig into Indian Country 101 on your own. There is so much to learn about the history of Indigenous people in America, the systemic policies used against them, and the resilience that allows them to thrive to this day.
