UID:642053@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Gdenwéwnan\, gdekimnan Our Language\, Our Land: Decolonizing Environmental Knowledge Systems with Indigenous Languages  RSVP  Situated within the broader fight for landback\, sovereignty\, Indigenous environmental justice\, and the revitalization of Indigenous languages\, this panel will focus on the lessons we may learn from Indigenous languages\, including Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe)\, Bodéwadmimwen (Potawatomi)\, Omāēqnomenēweqnaesen (Menominee)\, and ‘Ōlelo Hawai‘i (Hawaiian)\, and how they can teach us about cultivating respectful relationships with place.  Speakers:  Karen Washinawatok Karen Washinawatok (Menominee Tribe of Wisconsin)\, also known as Omäēqnomenew Metaemoh\, is a retired educator and board member of the Menominee Indian School District\, and the former director of the Menominee Language and Culture Commission\, currently residing in Keshena\, WI. She served on the Menominee Tribal Council 2004-06 and as Tribal Chair in 2005.  Corinne Kasper Corinne Kasper is an enrolled citizen of the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians whose research focuses on the Potawatomi language. Her interests include morphosyntax\, discourse and pragmatics\, language revitalization\, language and identity\, and new speakers. She views linguistics through the lens of her community. She received her BA in linguistics from Dartmouth College and her PhD in linguistics from the University of Chicago.  Gabriel Gilbert Gabriel H. Gilbert is a third-year linguistics Ph.D. student. As both community member and linguist\, his research focuses on theoretical and practical questions related to ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian)\, particularly those related to language revitalization concerns. Broadly\, his work asks (a) how to bridge the variationist sociolinguistic paradigm with the areas of language contact and shift\, especially in Indigenous and revitalizing languages; and (b) theoretical questions\, both synchronic and diachronic\, in the area of Austronesian morphosyntax and semantics. Gabriel received his B.A. in both linguistics and Indigenous Studies at Dartmouth College in 2023.  Forrest Bruce Forrest Bruce (Ojibwe) is a PhD candidate in the Learning Sciences at Northwestern University. His work focuses on land and water-based education and the design of communitybased learning environments that support Indigenous ways of knowing and being. He received a BS in Social Policy from Northwestern University and worked in the Chicago Public Schools’ American Indian Education Program (Title 6) for a year before joining the ISTEAM research project\, first as a research coordinator\, then later as a graduate student.  This event is co-sponsored by the Program for Environmental Policy & Culture\, NAISA Advocacy\, and In Our Nature.\n\nRegister: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScfywNfaF1OPKS-BSFLrWoOIKta25Pk-lnqIFXyKi_pVuEeqA/viewform?pli=1
