Add to favorites

By Michael Yellow Bird


"Colonization," says author and North Dakota State professor Michael Yellow Bird, "really is about invasion and subjugation of indigenous people."

In this fascinating and challenging presentation from Omega’s 2018 Making Peace With the Earth conference, Dr. Yellow Bird reveals how long-embedded cultural assumptions continue to undermine indigenous rights and how the brain can be predisposed to perpetuate false narratives about indigenous people, customs, and history.
