Great post and great paper by Mindy. She shoul...Hi,<br />Great post and great paper by Mindy. She should submit it to the symposium that is being organized next October in Mississippi. Although the symposium is being organized in collaboration with the Holocaust Museum, and, I suspect, will mostly be related to African American and Jewish identity, Native American identity is (or should be) very much part of the conversation. <br /><br />Here is the information I received about submission: "The deadline for receipt of proposals is June 13, 2014. To propose a paper, please send an abstract of no more than 500 words of your proposed paper, and a curriculum vitae that indicates your current academic affiliation, to Krista Hegburg, Ph.D., Program Officer, Mandel Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies, U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, at khegburg@ushmm.org.<br />Submissions must include the speaker’s name, institutional affiliation, current position, contact address, and email. The symposium organizers will provide lodging for the duration of the conference and a stipend to help defray transportation costs, as well as some meals and local transportation."<br /><br />My interest in this comes from my own pursuit of a PhD in international development and my work with youth on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana where I live and work. I was doing a quick search regarding the literature related to the topic of symbols or race in public spaces when I came across your blog and Mindy's paper.<br /><br />Best to you.....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12932962383297338380noreply@blogger.com
