Racial Justice Series: Indigenous Peoples and MMIR

February 8, 2022 @ 6:30 pm
@ 7:30 pm

On Tuesday, February 8, join us for a virtual conversation on "Indigenous Peoples and MMIR," with Jandi Craig, an Indigenous rights activist and scholar and member of the White Mountain Apache Tribe.

Jandi Craig will discuss Indigenous Peoples and MMIR (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives) and provide an overview of Indigenous Peoples in the United States including general information about Federal vs Nonfederal status, sovereignty, historical trauma, and current issues. Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives (or sometimes MMIW, W=women) is a movement that brings awareness and attention to the many Indigenous relatives who have been murdered or are missing with virtually no investigation or media attention.
