As part of Native American Heritage Month, the American Indian and Indigenous Studies Program is hosting a colloquium on the critical issue of Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG). The program features a range of speakers to educate students, faculty, and local community members on the history, contemporary situation, jurisdictional challenges, and lack of media attention regarding Native American women across the country who face sexual violence, are forced into sex trafficking, and who go missing or are murdered. Please contact Professor Richard Conley, Department of Political Science, at rconley@ufl.edu with any questions. All members of the UF and wider community are welcome!
