[SEMCO] Oct. 9 Boston Seminar on Environmental History

[Alexis Buckley]

Boston Seminar on Environmental History at the Massachusetts Historical Society

Tuesday, October 9, 2018, 5:15 PM

Lisa Brooks, Amherst College; Strother Roberts, Bowdoin College; Ashley Smith, Hampshire College; Thomas Wickman, Trinity College
Panel: Native American Environmental History
Moderator: Cedric Woods, Institute for New England Native American Studies, University of Massachusetts Boston

This panel will explore the intersections of environmental history and indigenous studies-the questions that each field engenders in the other, as well as the perspectives that native and non-native scholars bring to their research as they traverse both fields. Questions of race, gender, geography, and sources enliven this growing body of scholarship. Join us for a stimulating and wide-ranging conversation on these and other topics.

RSVP required. To respond, email seminars at masshist.org<mailto:seminars at masshist.org> or call 617-646-0579.
