Settler Colonialism, Land, Capitalism, and U.S. Social Movements: Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz

Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz gives a free, public lecture as part of the 2018 Fall Intra-Disciplinary Seminar (IDS) lecture series. She has been involved in movements against the Vietnam War and imperialism, union organizing, and was one of the founders of the Women’s Liberation Movement in the late 1960s. Since 1973, she has worked with indigenous communities for sovereignty and land rights and helped build the international indigenous movement. With a doctorate in history, she is professor emerita at California State University East Bay, and author of numerous scholarly indigenous-related books and articles, including the award-winning book, An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States. Her most recent book, Loaded: A Disarming History of the Second Amendment, was published by City Lights in 2018.

The Fall 2018 IDS Lecture Series at The Cooper Union is organized by Leslie Hewitt and Omar Berrada. The IDS Public Lecture Series is part of the Robert Lehman Visiting Artist Program at The Cooper Union. We are grateful for major funding and support from the Robert Lehman Foundation for the series.
