CALL FOR PAPERS
7th Annual Indigenous and American Studies Storyteller’s Conference
25th & 26th March, 2011
University at Buffalo
Buffalo, New York
As an Indigenous intellectual John Mohawk was deeply rooted in Haudenosaunee traditions and culture. Over the years he published extensively on Native wisdom, traditional philosophy and legal systems, economic and sovereign rights, human relations with the natural world, and Indigenous rights, all the while reminding us of the important of the traditional foods and the Three Sisters (corn, beans, squash) to sustain the people.
Keeping the legacy of John Mohawk and his work in mind, the 7th Annual Indigenous and American Studies Storyteller’s Conference will focus on the theme of Indigenous knowledge and research, and the wider American and international context. We invite researchers, teachers and community members from the fields of Indigenous and American Studies to contribute work on all aspects of Indigenous and American knowledge, language and culture.
