SUMMARY:Virtual Author Talk: Community\, Power\, and the Search for Indigenous Identity with Award-Winning Journalist Joseph Lee
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER & SUBMIT QUESTIONS HERE \nvia Digital Livestream or on Demand \nYou’re invited to learn from journalist and author Joseph Lee as he chats online with us about his stirring memoir\, Nothing More of This Land: Community\, Power\, and the Search for Indigenous Identity. In it\, he explores Indigenous identity in proximity to land that serves as an iconic vacationing spot for the wealthy–the “island paradise” Martha’s Vineyard. \nGrowing up Aquinnah Wampanoag\, Joseph Lee grappled with what it means to be an Indigenous person in the world today\, especially as tribal land\, culture\, and community face new threats. Starting with the story of his own tribe\, which is from the iconic Martha’s Vineyard\, Lee tackles key questions around Indigenous identity and the stubborn legacy of colonialism. \nLee weaves his own story—and that of his family—with conversations with Indigenous leaders\, artists\, and scholars from around the world about everything from culture and language to climate change and the politics of belonging. As he unpacks the meaning of Indigenous identity\, Lee grants us a new understanding of our nation and what a better community might look like. \nRegister now to join the author online as he delves into the true and vulnerable story\, Nothing More of This Land. \nAbout the Author: Joseph Lee is an Aquinnah Wampanoag writer based in New York City. He has an MFA from Columbia University and teaches creative writing at Mercy University. His writing has been published in The Guardian\, BuzzFeed\, Vox\, High Country News\, and more. He was a Margins Fellow at the Asian American Writers Workshop and a Senior Indigenous Affairs Fellow at Grist.
