Description:

JeeYeun Lee uses performance, research, and socially engaged art to bring our attention to the ways that histories of place shape our internal and external experiences of it. In this talk, Lee will share her most recent works focusing on the colonization and genocide of Indigenous Peoples in what is now the United States. As an immigrant from Korea – a formerly colonized country now participating in the ongoing colonization of others – her work reflects on what it means (or doesn't mean) to be a settler, immigrant, and ally to Indigenous Peoples.
