The contemporary story of Native Americans, Alaskan Native, Native Hawaiian, and other Indigenous peoples is fraught with historical and cultural inaccuracies and harmful stereotypes.

In addition, the prevailing narrative of Native people in education is one of failure, trauma, deficit based, and invisibility. However, what is omitted about Native people is their strength, resistance, humor, and stories of triumph.

This presentation will uncover misconceptions of Native people and culture historically, legally, and contemporary while centering the conversation on how we as a university can reflect and work to create a welcoming and inclusive campus for Native students, parents, faculty, staff, and tribal nations.
