Warch 320 – Gallery
Echoes of Tomorrow: Indigenous Futures Reimagined, is an Ethnic Studies independent study which explores the topic of Indigenous Futurism as a concept of hope for reparations and decolonization. Showcasing works of Dr. Adrienne Keene (Cherokee), Matika Wilbur (Swinomish/Tulalip), Skawennati (Kahnawakeronon/First Nations Canada), Wendy Red Star (Apsáalooke), Dr. Grace Dillon (Anishinaabe), and various other Native activists/artists.
Using media and talks from various contemporary artists, we ask questions such as: What is Indigenous futurism? Is this purely just science fiction? What might this idea look like? Is Indigenous Futurism an “achievable” concept?
This student-led talk will explore the combination of embracing cultural heritage, challenging systemic oppression, and promoting healing embodied through an interdisciplinary collection of multimedia art, poetry, articles, movies, videos, and more.
This exhibit is free and open to the public. All are welcome—please join us!
