The Office of DEIA would like to remind everyone of two professional development opportunities coming up!
Nov 14th at 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm in Quiet Dining Room: Storytelling w/ Pamela Seamonster. Pamela Seamonster is a traditional storyteller from the Snohomish tribe and will be joining us for traditional storytelling centering community and collaboration rooted in Indigenous teachings. This professional development opportunity is open to students and will be an indigenous approach to training. Please feel free to bring your lunch! This event is only available in person.
Nov 18th @ 3:30 pm to 5:00 pm in the Theater:Our Grandmother The Inlet. This film was created by Kayah George & Jaime Gianopoulos in partnership with “Sacred Trust” which is led by The Tslesil-Waututh Nation. This short film sheds light on the mental health challenges faced by Indigenous youth and the enduring spirit to reclaim their connection to culture, water, and land. Afterwards we will have an opportunity to discuss the film with the directors and continue to grow our own understanding of what our Native students experience.
Both opportunities are open to both students & community members and will serve as a great way for our teams to learn about Native communities and issues that are close to Native communities & our Native students. Due to requests from our facilitators these opportunities are in person only to respect the cultural practices.
Best,
Brian Crisanto Ramos M.A. (He/Him) Vice President of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility. Pipil, Lenca, & Mayan Nations
Election season can be a difficult time for everyone and as things settle, we want to take a moment for students to come together and reflect on how we are doing and share how we are taking care of ourselves during this time.
The Day of the Dead is an Indigenous tradition originally celebrated throughout the fall to invite the living to celebrate life and death with those loved ones who have passed. It is believed that during this time the spirit of the departed visit their loved ones and to welcome them, families and friends, create gifts and offerings to guide them home.
To bring in Indigenous Peoples Month and to celebrate the shoulders our campus community stands on we would like to invite everyone to participate! We will have picture frames available for you to display photos of those you wish to honor and index cards if you would like to honor someone who has passed but you do not have an image of. You can also bring objects, food, or other items enjoyed by your loved ones.
