Shirley Greenberg Annual Lecture: Indigenous Acts of Resistance – A Vital Conversation with Katsi’tsakwas Ellen Gabriel
March 11 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
The history of Indigenous resistance is one of memory, justice, and the ongoing struggle for the recognition of rights. How do Indigenous peoples continue to fight for the preservation of their lands, cultures, and identities in a world still shaped by the lasting impacts of colonialism?
These crucial questions will take center stage at the Shirley Greenberg Annual Lecture 2025, featuring Katsi’tsakwas Ellen Gabriel, a prominent Indigenous rights advocate, in conversation with Professor Audra Simpson, a distinguished Mohawk anthropologist.
Held annually, the Shirley Greenberg Annual Lecture amplifies the voices of committed activists and influential thinkers tackling issues of social justice and human rights.
In 2025, this event will be an essential reflection on Indigenous resistance, featuring two major figures in the fight for Indigenous self-determination. Through an insightful and inspiring dialogue, Ellen Gabriel and Audra Simpson will offer a critical perspective on past and present struggles, as well as the challenges ahead.
The event will also be available online for remote participation on Zoom
