We're so excited to show you all this amazing video done by Mizzou student, Roxanne Wan, on the Indigenous Mural!

She was able to capture @Yatikafields creating it and got time to sit down with him and speak on the piece.

@DrRobertPetrone This bit 🔥: "We argue for a shift from research that focuses on 'trauma-informed education' to scholarship that enacts a sociohistorical trauma-reducing framework to more effectively interrogate the intersections of trauma, schooling, and research."

Earlier this semester we were asked if we wanted to do a display over the summer in Ellis Library. Titled [Our] #OwnVoices in the main floor of Ellis. Come check it out. Find some great reads from great Indigenous storytellers!

Today on National Day of Awareness for Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women & Girls we wear red to honor and remember #MMIP relatives. We wear red to bring awareness to this ongoing crisis and we ask that you amplify the need for #MMIWGActionNow.

ALSO, @Mizzou & @mizzoudiversity taking any action of divesting & hindering the social justice centers is spitting in the face of @MU_4Directions mural project.

A project supported financially by these centers as well as by @mizzoudiversity
