In conjunction with Cultural Survival, you are invited to a very special evening event Friday, November 10 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Santa Fe Community Foundation featuring Maori elder and activist Pauline Tangiora and special guests. Ms. Tangiora will hold a dialogue around how each of us can rise up in our own community and become empowered in our actions, including and especially our youth. Q & A will follow. This is a rare opportunity to host Grandmother Pauline in Santa Fe.
Cultural Survival welcomes Nati Garcia, Indigenous Youth Community Media Fellowship Coordinator, as the newest member to our staff. Nati is Maya Mam from Ixtahuacan, Guatemala. She was born in a refugee camp in Campeche, Mexico as her family fled Guatemala in the 1980’s due to the military genocide operation that targeted Indigenous communities. At the age of 3 years old, her family received refugee in Canada.
