But less than half of those who showed up identified as \u201can activist.\u201d Who and what is an activist? And what role does higher education play? Does activism just happen in the streets? What is the future of scholar-activism in higher education?<\/p>\n<p><em>Dr. Rosalyn LaPier<\/em> (Blackfeet\/Metis), an award-winning Indigenous writer and environmental scholar at the University of Montana, will join in conversation with her daughter <em>Abaki Beck<\/em> (Blackfeet\/Metis). They will draw from their own experiences, representing two generations and vantage points, to address the nexus of teaching, learning and activism.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. LaPier draws from her research on Native American activists for <em>City Indian<\/em>, writing about her Blackfeet community in <em>Invisible Reality<\/em> (strengths-based research), to her own activism such as organizing the first March for Science in Washington, D.C. that resulted in more than 1 million people marching in 600 cities. Abaki, now a graduate student, is an emerging scholar-activist whose writing has appeared in <em>Bitch<\/em> and <em>Yes!
