Healing One Story at a Time: Digital Storytelling and Indigenous Intersectionality

Storytelling is revered within the oral tradition that continues to thrive in Native American communities. The best stories provide profound navigational maps that enter our consciousness and guide us throughout our lives.

This event will highlight one innovative storytelling approach – digital storytelling – its use in Indian Country, and the ways it celebrates resiliency as well as the wide range of intersecting identities among today’s Native Americans. A panel of Native American professors, students, and community leaders will discuss the impact of traditional storytelling in Indian Country and how storytelling has shaped their own lives.
