PAST DATE AND TIME:

Join us for a two-part guided exploration into contemporary Indigenous literature. Led by local poet and professor Crisosto Apache.
Part 1: February/March Book Club
Book: "Genocide of the Mind: New Native American Writing," edited by MariJo Moore.
About the Book: “This book puts stereotypes into context that have come up in American society. This reflects on the changes and the initial troubles related to the context on Indigeneity. Great writers in this book include Paula Gunn Allen, Simon J. Ortez, and Leslie Marmon Silko.
“Hopefully the insights from this reading offer a different perspective. This book addresses the complications of Indigenous identity in the United States, Canada, and Central America. It engages in a global conversation on imperialism and identity. This book beautifully starts this conversation.”
- Crisosto Apache, Roots Radical Book Club leader
Meeting 1: Feb 2, 2023, 6-8pm MST at RedLine
