Over 130 American Indian Students Attend 38th Annual AILOTT Conference
The 38th annual American Indian Leaders of Today and Tomorrow Conference at CSULB was held on November 6, 2014. Organized by the American Indian Student Council at Cal State Long Beach, students came as far as Thermal, Soboba, Santa Ynez and Sherman Indian High School in Riverside. Michelle Rajehia Reservation Reelism: Redfacing, Visual Sovereignty, and Representations of Native Americans in Film and Larry Smith American Indian Airwaves were the keynote speakers. They addressed the concept of Visual Sovereignty by contrasting examples of non-Indian produced media images with Indigenous hip hop artists. Thank you to all of the participants who made this a successful conference.
