Connecting Communities: Reclaiming Indigenous Knowledge
The American Society for Ethnohistory (ASE) is the preeminent international organization in its field. Representing multiple disciplines—cultural anthropology, history, American Indian studies, archaeology, ecology, linguistics, and related fields—the society is committed to creating a more inclusive picture of the histories of native groups.
The 2022 annual meeting will take place in a hybrid format with in-person and virtual events on September 7-10th. The conference will be hosted by the University of Kansas’ Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies with funding provided by the U.S. Department of Education National Resource Center grant.
This year’s theme is Connecting Communities: Reclaiming Indigenous Knowledge. We welcome thematic panels and panels that include perspectives drawn from across the Americas, and beyond. We encourage panels to consider various ways in which Indigenous communities forged and maintained connections to other communities, Indigenous or not, across time and space. How have issues of colonialism and issues of power structured these relationships? How have Indigenous communities used such connections to subvert colonial or hegemonic forces? How have various forms of Indigenous knowledge featured into connections between, within, and across communities? How has/can a greater awareness of Indigenous knowledge, and its various forms, enhance the practice and findings of ethnohistory?
