A scholar talk from the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in-person and onlineAbout this Event
Angela Kay Parker
Katrin H. Lamon Fellow at the School for Advanced Research and Assistant Professor of History, University of Denver
Join Dr. Angela Kay Parker for a program exploring how Native nations have navigated oil extraction across the twentieth century. Moving from Osage and Creek territories to Blackfeet, Crow, Alaska Native communities, Southern Ute, Jicarilla Apache, Fort Berthold, and Standing Rock, Dr. Parker places Native sovereignty at the center of the story of American oil.
In her talk, she will examine how tribal governments have faced complicated decisions about land, authority, and resource use over time. Dr. Parker invites attendees to rethink familiar narratives of “progress” and energy development by foregrounding the communities that have borne the greatest costs—and that are actively shaping more just futures.
