What is cultural appropriation really, and why is it harmful? This presentation provides definitions, historical and cultural information, and examines the complexities and opportunities for exploitation and oppression of non-dominant cultures by even well-meaning people. Through activities and discussions, participants will explore ways to understand the difference between appreciation and appropriation and gain the confidence to have difficult conversations with peers for better understanding across cultural differences.

The Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) is the gold standard for tribal policy that protects Native children by keeping them within their tribes during the adoption process. It has combated Indigenous erasure and genocide for years! Now in 2023, ICWA is at danger in Congress for being deemed unconstitutional. Come to this workshop to hear the stories and history of ICWA from Native members who have worked on and fought for ICWA to be enacted in Washington.
