About this Event

The Toward Morning—Nyamathaam’im—‘Abíní Lecture Series is a gathering hosted by the Center for Imagination in the Borderlands on October 22–23, 2025.

Toward Morning—Nyamathaam’im—‘Abíní, a lecture series, is part of the 210 Project, a larger initiative which uses seven generations of time, or two-hundred ten years, as a portal to disrupt conventions of time and to imagine old and new ways of engaging our communities and worlds, in language and other makings. There are two words we offer to frame our ideas, questions, and structure for our collective engagement: the Morning as an action, a call to do things differently and anew, and Tendency, a model of collectivity for how we might come together and “be with” one another.

On day one of our series, scholars Rebecca Belmore, Leonie Pihama, and Dionne Brand will present 18-20 minute lectures on the Morning. On day two of the series, artists and scholars will offer 8-10 minute responses to the initial lectures. Our day two speakers include Brandon Shimoda, Christina Sharpe, Linda Tuhuwai-Smith, Amanda Tachine, Rose Simpson, Ralph Lemon, Laura Harris, Candice Hopkins, Raven Chacon, Kelly Lytle Hernandez, and Cameron Rowland.Refreshments will be served both days.
