#BLACKLIVESMATTER AND INDIGENOUS RESISTANCE: THINKING THROUGH INTERSECTIONAL MOVEMENTS by Center for Race & Gender published on 2020-09-23T21:37:27Z September 17, 2020 Radical Kinship Series -- Conversations that confront how we fail and succeed to show up for one another in the midst of violence. We invite you to listen to first installment of “Radical Kinship,” a new series curated and hosted by CRG’s Arts and Humanities Initiative Research Scholar, Alan Pelaez Lopez. In this first installment, Amber Starks and Ashley Ngozi Agbasoga discuss Afro-Indigenous resistance, contradictions and their radical possibilities. Starks, known as@MelaninMvskoke on social media, is a Black Mvskoke (Creek) citizen whose tweets and Instagram art encourage Black and Indigenous peoples to prioritize one another and divest from compartmentalizing struggles. A doctoral candidate at Northwestern University, Agbasoga’s work illuminates how Black, Indigenous, and Black/Afro-Indigenous women engage in placemaking practices that reveal and unsettle notions of race, place, and modern state formation in México. Co-sponsored by African American Studies and Native American Studies at UC Berkeley.
