Lecture Series: We the Yavapai People Since Time Immemorial
Lecture Series: We the Yavapai People Since Time Immemorial
The Yavapai people and their ancestors have called the Central Highlands of Arizona home since time immemorial, passing down stories, traditions, and cultural knowledge through generations.
Join Linda Ogo, Director of the Culture Research Department for the Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe, for an insightful lecture exploring the history and culture of the Yavapai people. Once occupying more than nine million acres across what is now central and western Arizona, the Yavapai have a rich and enduring legacy. This program will highlight both the challenges and successes of the Yavapai people, with a special focus on the Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe—our neighbors and an integral part of the region’s living history.
Presented in connection with America250, this lecture will explore themes such as defining “We the People,” the idea of “unfinished revolutions,” and the “power of place”—the importance of where we live and how it shapes identity and community.
