Our upcoming exhibit will be "Celebrating Indigeneity" in collaboration with the Sloan Indigenous Graduate Partnership: Exemplifying the various forms of survivance, adaptation, and flourishment of our Indigenous communities, this exhibition is an explicit celebration of the contributors' individual and collective connections to place and people. Each piece celebrates one's rich and rooted connections - to where and from who one derives - that together celebrate the multiple connections that comprise each person. Weaving together our experiences and stories, these pieces collectively illustrate that to be an Indigenous student, scholar, and/or researcher in academia is not a monolithic experience but a point of connection and departure. The exhibit opening will be hosted on Monday, April 7, 6pm-7pm in the Alab. Featured Artists: Taymee A. Brandon Andrew Binder Janelle Cronin Ramona Dwyer Jeremy W. James BeKa (Rebecca) Leuschen-Kohl Stephanie Masta Saan Yazhi Nez Olivia J. Palepoi Jayvaughn Fredrick Peter Austin M. K. Peters Tawn M.

Amy Amy Ledman She/Her/Hers Lead Graduate Program Specialist Ecological Sciences and Engineering Office of Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs Schedule a meeting: calendly.com/aledman<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalendly.…> On behalf of Dr. Kali Rubaii, I am pleased to extend an invitation to a panel discussion and book launch event on demilitarizing our visions of the future. Demilitarizing Repair, Peace, Futures will be held on Monday, April 28, 1-2:30pm in STEW 214 CD. Reception to follow. Dr. Rubaii is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology and her research focuses on displacement, war-impacted ecologies, and environmental health justice. Flyer attached, description below: This is only the beginning. When worlds are destroyed, people get started building lives otherwise. In this panel, Eleana Kim, Bassam Haddad, and Carole McGranahan -prominent scholars of militarism and resurgent survival from Korea to Syria to Tibet- discuss the relationship between human violence and ecological thriving. They describe forms of organized and disorganized resistance to empire, and the complex ways those who remain, return, or live in diaspora relate to home/lands. Together, their work features the urgent stakes of transformative ethnography and of demilitarized visions for our future(s). Sincerely, Ashley Fitzpatrick (she/her) Graduate Student Anthropology, Ecological Sciences and Engineering Purdue University
