Ithaca College invites all as we commemorate the rich history and cultures of the indigenous and first peoples of our land. This campus-wide educational programming series provides learning opportunities through lectures, presentations, performances, film screenings with discussions, and other efforts, to honor native cultures and the history of our country.
“Of Land & Bodies: Gendering Colonization, Decolonizing the Indigenous Imagination”- Wednesday, November 16, Williams 222, 7:00pm
Hailey Cavino will be presenting extracts from her dissertation entitled ‘Towards a Method of Belonging: Contextualizing Gender Violence in Maori Worlds’, which explores the transformative potential of recovering story—particularly how writing ancestors is performative with regard its capacity to shape/shift belongings across time.
Hayley Marama Cavino is a doctoral candidate and adjunct instructor in the Native American & Indigenous Studies Program at Syracuse University where her teaching and scholarly work examines the spatial and relational particularities of settlement as gendered phenomena. When she is not writing Hayley is an organizer and scholar activist who coordinates the Democratizing Knowledge Project at Syracuse University. She is a mother of three sons, a partner, and a daughter of Ngati Pukenga and Ngati Whiti iwi/tribes in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
Refreshments will be provided.
