INDIAN COUNTRY CONVERSATIONS
UPCOMING EVENTS AT WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY

NOV 5:  "Blood and (Be)Longing: Race, Identity, and the Geneticization
of
Indigenous Identity" by Professor Angela Gonzalez, Cornell University

Friday, November 5, 2:30-4 p.m.
Ford Hall (Theater on first floor), State Street, across from Supreme
Court

In this presentation, Professor Gonzalez argues that genetic testing
presents new ethical challenges for indigenous peoples both because
the
diagnostic process and method in genetic testing is ethically similar
to
earlier racial diagnostics and because it perpetuates biological
essentialism and racial classifications that continue the dispossession
of
Native culture and identity, and undermine tribal sovereignty and
self-determination.  Co-sponsored by American Ethnic Studies, Biology,
and
Sociology Departments.
