Over
the course of the next few months, NARF will co-sponsor a series of programs
presented by distinguished historians and guests that will further
explore the culture of the Arapaho people, regional historical figures,
the devastating effects of the Sand Creek Massacre, as well as
contemporary Native Americans on the Wind River Reservation and in urban
centers.
For
those who live in Colorado and specifically the Boulder area, please
join us next Thursday, August 30 from 7:00-8:30pm for the first event, Too Close To Home: Facing Sand Creek on the CU-Boulder Campus,
presented by University of Colorado Professor, historian, and MacArthur
‘genius grant’ winner, Patricia Limerick. Professor Limerick will
discuss the process and protests involved in changing the name of CU
dormitory Nichols Hall to Cheyenne Arapaho Hall. For additional
