SUMMARY:Native Life in the City 2021 Gala
DESCRIPTION:Join UIATF for a week-long series of livestreams leading up to our annual Native Life in the City Gala. We’re talking to Native changemakers and caretakers about where our community has been\, where we are now\, and what’s next.\nThe overarching theme of this year’s gala — We’re Still Here — is rooted in perseverance. It is not only the spirit of trudging onward against the backdrop of a second pandemic year\, but also remaining Indigenous on our lands after centuries of abuse and erasure.\nEach day of our week-long program focuses on a different sub-theme designed to reflect on that larger topic. It’s a thematically chronological series of livestream conversations.\n5/10 – “Where Have We Been?” Monday’s live is an intimate conversation between our board’s Chairwoman\, Abriel Johnny + original fence jumpers from the 1970 Fort Lawton Takeover\, the protest that literally paved the way for UIATF’s existence.\n5/11 – “What Are We Taking With Us?” Tuesday’s live is a panel about Indigenous language survival. Already at risk prior to COVID-19\, it has become an even more perilous as we struggle against a disease most deadly to elders\, who are relied upon for cultural preservation.\n5/12 – “How Are We Healing?” We’d be remiss without a discussion about the incredible work of Native doctors and healers in keeping our people well and coordinating a notoriously swift vaccine roll-out. Speakers will include Dr. Socia Love of Seattle Indian Health Board and Dr. Dakotah Lane\, Health Director of Lummi Nation.\n5/13 – “Where Are We Now?” In line with our broader theme\, we want to ground ourselves in the present through a roundtable with Native elected officials about contemporary Indigenous struggles. Speakers will include longtime former Sen. John McCoy + Rep. Debra Lekanoff.\n5/14 – “Where Are We Going?” Friday’s stream is a conversation between Oscar-nominated filmmaker Ava DuVernay (When They See Us\, 13th) and rising star Jana Schmieding (Rutherford Falls) about retelling narratives often deleted from or distorted in “textbook” history. How we approach the telling of our past has a major impact on our ability to envision a future together\, and we’re turning to two BIPOC women of Hollywood for insight about that process.\n5/15 – The gala will conclude on Saturday with our yearly auction of Native artwork and goods.

She has two children and five grandchildren. Alice started the Sewing Circle with the Indigenous Sisters Resistance\, guiding and teaching her native sisters how to create and make their own prayer/ribbon skirts for ceremonies\, pow wows\, and sweats. Alice was pivotal in helping the women of the Indipino Community of Bainbridge Island create and sew their own ribbon skirts for the Indipino Celebration at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art. It is a celebration to honor both her cultures – Native and Filipino. She is a member of the Indigenous Sisters Resistance Drum and Sing group which has performed at events such as the Folk Life Festival at Seattle Center\, lead the Women’s March in Seattle two years in a row and at the Indipino Celebration.\nCynthia A.

Hello\, my name is Karonhí:io Delaronde\, I am Mohawk\, I come from Ganienkeh\, and I am of the turtle clan. Foremost\, I am honored to be a fluent Kanien’kéha (Mohawk) speaker through the gentleness and kindheartedness of many of my elders. I had the opportunity to spend quality time and teach with them through my years as a teacher in my community. That is something I hold close.\nI came to Seattle in early 2018 leaving my home community of 30 years. I came out here to experience things that I did not know that I didn’t know. That feeling brought\, and still brings\, much excitement to my life over here.
