Panel: Emerging Voices of Student Activism in Indigenous Communities Traditionally, student voices in the indigenous community have not been well represented in archival collections. How can we build relationships, increase trust and understanding, and perhaps empower indigenous students to capture their own histories? The focus of this panel will be to highlight these issues and hear first-hand from student activists in the ASU indigenous community.
