Planting seeds for Seven Generations is a phrase known among Indigenous North American people reminding us of the importance our actions today have on our future and the seven generations that will follow. This year, we will connect with our indigenous roots and celebrate our Earth and all who call it home today and for seven generations to come. Join us as we start Working as one for the Future.
Seminole, Miccosukee, Carib, Ainu, Quechua, and others will share their stories, dances, music, and art conveying their ancestral knowledge while celebrating the important lessons of this year’s theme. We welcome our FIU Graduate Student, Carolina Castoreno of Apache heritage as our Master of Ceremonies.
The Indigenous Celebration will be presented as Workshops between 2:00 -5:00 pm, and then Dance/Story/Song/Videos between 6:30-9:00 pm. The sessions will be as interactive as possible...
