In honor of Women's History Month, the Native American House and Women's Resources Center invite Dr. Urla Marcus (Northern Cheyenne/Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa), Director of the Center for American Indian Studies at Black Hills State University, to serve as a Dinner on Us speaker. Dr. Marcus will lead a conversation on Howasteya Oyuspapi: Capturing Their Good Voices, a documentary sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities and Black Hills State University. This film was created with the goal of documenting and preserving elders’ wisdom, cultural knowledge, and experiences. Six elders were identified and interviewed. This film is dedicated to capturing this knowledge for current and future generations to preserve language, traditions, beliefs, and values.
