'Indigenous Storytelling' series showcases Native voices in literature, arts
11/19/2020
Earlier this month, we launched MIAC’s November speaker series, “Indigenous Storytelling in Art and Literature,” co-hosted by Deputy Director Dr. Matthew Martinez (Ohkay Owingeh) and Curatorial Assistant Lillia McEnaney. To watch our latest installment in the series, click on the link below.
According to Dr. Reese, (Nambé Owingeh), less than 1% of children’s books published in the United States include American Indian characters or authors. These conversations are an extension of MIAC’s ongoing work with local schools and educators, and is meant to serve as a resource for New Mexicans to learn about Indigenous communities throughout the Southwest.
Our third speaker is Daniel W. Vandever (Navajo). From Haystack, New Mexico, Vandever, is the Communications Director of Navajo Technical University, where he also serves as an adjunct instructor. Vandever obtained his undergraduate degree in Strategic Communication from the University of Missouri and his graduate degree in Community and Regional Planning from the University of New Mexico. Vandever volunteers for the Crownpoint Navajo Rug Auction, providing technical support and helping local weavers sell their rugs. Vandever comes from a long line of educators and is the grandson of Navajo Code Talker Joe Vandever Sr. He is the author of “Fall in Line, Holden!” (2017), which follows a young Navajo Boy through his day at a boarding school.

Indigenous Storytelling in Art and Literature: Laurel Goodluck, Mandan/Hidatsa/Tsimshian
Earlier this month, we launched MIAC’s November speaker series, “Indigenous Storytelling in Art and Literature,” co-hosted by Deputy Director Dr. Matthew Martinez (Ohkay Owingeh) and Curatorial Assistant Lillia McEnaney. Today we are featuring the second installment of this series that you can watch at the link below.
According to Dr. Reese, (Nambé Owingeh), less than 1% of children’s books published in the United States include American Indian characters or authors. These conversations are an extension of MIAC’s ongoing work with local schools and educators, and is meant to serve as a resource for New Mexicans to learn about Indigenous communities throughout the Southwest.
Today we invite you to listen to our second speaker in this series, Laurel Goodluck. Laurel Goodluck writes picture books with modern Native themes that reflect Native children’s cultural experiences and everyday life, showing Native children that they have a perspective that is unique and powerful. Raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Laurel comes from an intertribal background of Mandan and Hidatsa from the prairies of North Dakota, and Tsimshian from a rainforest in Alaska. Laurel received both a B.A. in Psychology and an M.A. in Community Counseling and Family Studies from the University of New Mexico.
She began writing by crafting a curriculum for community advocacy involving Native teen leadership and later for children newly diagnosed with mental health challenges. Laurel lives with her Navajo husband in Albuquerque, where they raised two children also bent on storytelling in journalism and filmmaking. She was a recipient of the 2019 We Need Diverse Books Picture Book Mentorship and was paired with award-winner author Traci Sorell. She also received a competitive funding grant from New Mexico Writers to support new works in progress.

View a virtual program from our partners at the National Museum of the American Indian honoring the service and sacrifice of Native veterans and their families and marking the completion of the National Native American Veterans Memorial. This program includes tributes to Native veterans and a virtual tour of the memorial. Thank you for your service!
“The National Native American Veterans Memorial will serve as a reminder to the nation and the world of the service and sacrifice of Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian veterans. Native Americans have always answered the call to serve, and this memorial is a fitting tribute to their patriotism and deep commitment to this country.” —Kevin Gover (Pawnee), director of the National Museum of the American Indian
Join us Wednesday, November 11, online at AmericanIndian.si.edu for the opening of the National Native American Veterans Memorial. The moment will be marked with a short virtual message to honor the service and sacrifice of Native veterans and their families.
The memorial, which sits on the grounds of the museum, was commissioned by Congress to give “all Americans the opportunity to learn of the proud and courageous tradition of service of Native Americans in the Armed Forces of the United States.” Native Americans have served in every major military conflict in the U.S. since the Revolutionary War. The memorial is the first national landmark in Washington, D.C., to honor the contributions of American Indians, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiians who have served in the military.
The design by Harvey Pratt (Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma) features an elevated stainless steel circle resting on a carved stone drum. It also incorporates water for sacred ceremonies, benches for gatherings, and four lances where veterans, family members, tribal leaders and others can tie cloths for prayers and healing.
The museum planned to host a dedication ceremony and veterans’ procession to mark the memorial’s completion but postponed those events due to current health and safety guidelines. The museum will reschedule both events when it is safe to do so.
Major support for the National Native American Veterans Memorial has been provided by the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes; Chickasaw Nation; Margaret A. Cargill Philanthropies; Poarch Band of Creek Indians; San Manuel Band of Mission Indians; and Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community. The memorial has also been widely supported by tribal governments and tribal veterans organizations. More than 85 tribes, individuals, corporations and other organizations have contributed to the memorial.

MIAC Announces Indigenous Storytelling Speaker Series

[email protected]
The Museum of Indian Arts & Culture (MIAC) is excited to announce a new virtual speaker series called "Indigenous Storytelling in Literature and Arts." The first of these weekly presentations will begin at 1 p.m. MST on Thursday, November 5, 2020.
According to Dr. Debbie Reese (Nambé Owingeh), “Children are inundated with stereotyped and biased images of Native people in the fiction, non-fiction, and textbooks they read. As a result, Native children’s’ self-esteem is harmed and non-Native children are miseducated. Recent years have shown a small but steady increase in books by Native writers that counter harmful imagery, though there is still significant work to be done.”
These conversations are an extension of MIAC’s ongoing work with local schools and educators and are meant to serve as a resource for New Mexicans to learn about Indigenous communities throughout the Southwest. Their critical work is expanding the knowledge and understandings of Indigenous voices in literature and the arts.
“We are enthusiastic to host such an accomplished group of speakers,” said MIAC Executive Director Della Warrior (Otoe-Missouria). “This series is timely for MIAC as we continue to develop programs focused on showcasing the diversity of Indigenous educators and artists.”
Please check MIAC’s page on Thursdays at 1 p.m. MST for the weekly link.

Join MIAC for the video premiere of Innastate's newest song, Seeds. After winning the Native American Music Award for best debut group 2019, New Mexico’s own reggae/rock band Innastate have been working on new music and content moving forward. Seeds - one of their newest songs - encapsulates the sentiment and feeling of prolonged trial and error in life. Sometimes life can feel all too heavy but this does not mean we are alone in our struggle. The title itself is a metaphor for the work and heart we put into our world in hopes of it one day blooming and growing into the rewards we will one day reap.

Shije is inspired by many musical artists, including John Mayer, Michael McDonald, and The Beatles. He has also produced his own music, which has been described as “rhythmically groovy and sonically vivid with vintage textures."

"Joe Garcia's Soldiers" from San Juan Pueblo
Ojibway artist IceBear just completed the restoration of a composite material sculpture originally installed in 2001. It is located on the harbour front in Victoria, BC, and titled Four Winds. Photos and videos of the restoration process is on his page, IceBear Studios. It is placed with its back to the prevailing winds from the ocean. The north wind blows her ice breath into the world, and Nanabush’s huge claws are warning of much destruction across the lands if humans continue their careless ways. Since this pieces was created, much of what it forecast has come to pass. On the other side, out of view, is a frog...to speak for the amphibians who are vanishing at a rapid rate all over the world. And Thunderbird has his face to the sky, ready to carry messages, and offering hope to those who will listen and act. Overhead, an amorphous cloud hovers, what shape it will take is up to us. North Wind, here also representing Mother Earth, originally had a completely clear breath. Over the years, it has yellowed, and despite best efforts by the artist, could not be returned to its original brilliance. Much like the air and water we breath.
Sold! at Native Treasures, thank you!

Did you record the lecture on Chaco and Cahokia Mounds (Wed @noon?). Over 300 people were interested and the event was shut off at 100. I tried to check in between
11:55 and 12:10 was told the event was full. If you did record it, where can we find it?
I hope that the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture can invite Native scholars, especially Pueblo scholars, to discuss Chaco Canyon in the future! It would be wonderful to have perspectives from within the culture.
I hope you are recording this!
Thank you
