As we wrap up another year in a global pandemic, we are learning that COVID-19 has disproportionately affected Native, Indigenous, American Indian, and Alaskan Native populations and that these health disparities are not new. Coupled with the continued loss of native lands and recent discoveries of indigenous graves beneath schools, this year has been more than challenging for those communities. Join us for a panel discussion with members of the Hopkins community as they share their perspective and personal experiences from over the last year and what they believe the next 12 months may bring.
Following this livestream, we invite participants to join our panelists in small group conversations via Zoom guided by two exploratory questions:
1. What can we do to support native and indigenous communities and people today?
2. Where do the stories of native and indigenous people, and efforts for equity and anti-racism, fit into today’s current public discourse?
