We are excited to announce the launch of our latest video project, Asserting Self-Determination: Activist Scholars Discuss the Work of Rudolph Rÿser. In this 30-minute discussion with Dr. Leslie Korn, activist scholars Dina Gilio-Whitaker and Sociologist Erich Steinman, Ph.D., discuss the influence of CWIS Founder and Chair Dr. Rudolph Rÿser’s seminal theories and praxis of Indigenous self-determination on the development of their thinking and writing. Key concepts touched upon include fourth world theory, the limitations of the term sovereignty, and defining the fight for Indigenous self-determination as a process of nation-building rather than a quest for equality and inclusion.

Publisher | CEO | Speaker on Publishing HigherEd and Leadership | Linguistic Imperialism Scholar | Author of A2: A Scholarly Poetical Scientist Discourse | Fulbright Specialist 🇯🇲
As we contemplate our political climate of war, environmental concerns, identity, including gender identity, and the multiple layers of marginalization that perpetuate fear, uncertainty, and a sense of loss, we must remember that there is one thing we can control from our individual lens. Staying the course. As a political scientist, we are taught to read the rooms of history and interrogate shifts in trends; as a scholar, activist, and author, I understand walking the tightrope of our social contract, and as a #Blackwoman, my personhood and the Black bodies of those that look like me, is constantly threatened. In all these spaces, we must continue to tell our story, push beyond fear to hope, and be the bearers and witnesses to history the way those who survived the over 200 years of enslavement so we could live did. I advocate for: ~ Community ~ Network ~ Afrocentricity and African-Centeredness ~ SKU and the Sense of Being ~ Being authentic in our walk and our talk ~ Supporting the ecosystem that must live so WE LIVE Thank you, #SankofaBookstore, and Dr. Traci Wyatt of #TWDT, for the opportunity and space to serve, share information, and build community. It is my hope that the gems provided are uplifting and move us forward. https://lnkd.in/ewnSrqQZ
