Beyond the Trail of Broken Treaties: The International Native American Rights Movement, 1975-1980

Dr. O’Neal’s project examines the transformative shift, beginning in the mid-1970s, of organized Native American and Indigenous groups within the United States and Canada to internationalize Indigenous activism. Utilizing an Indigenous feminist approach, this work argues that Native American activism after the Red Power Movement shifted significantly from a domestic agenda to an international Indigenous initiative seeking increased sovereignty, self-determination, and human rights through global political relationships and partnerships, both within and outside the nation-state. Based on extensive archival research and in-depth activist interviews, the study specifically focuses on the role of Native American activists within organized groups that developed strong networks and exchanges in the Indigenous international arena.

This event is part of the 2022 fall scholar colloquia series. Each year, incoming resident scholars introduce their work to the SAR community through a presentation and Q&A. This year’s talks are hosted online and continue to be free and open to the public. Registration is required.
