Virtual Groves Book Discussion Group
Thursday, March 23, 7:30-9:00 pm EST
Discussion Facilitator Dr. Sandy Lookabaugh
Each year we will chose a book related to that year’s conference theme. The 2023 conference theme is Lakota culture on Pine Ridge Reservation, South Dakota and will be held in Pine Ridge, South Dakota May 30-June 3, 2023.
The book that we have chosen is The Inconvenient Indian by Thomas King. King's work is an account of the history of indigenous rights and treaties in North America. He notes the portrayal of indigenous peoples in popular media as having contributed greatly to public knowledge of North American Indians. The book ends on an optimistic note: "If the last five hundred years are any indication, what the Native people of North America do with the future should be very curious indeed."
