The Inconvenient Indian by Thomas King
Wednesday, June 30, 7:00pm
Looking to expand your reading list and discuss a variety of issues and topics important to Native people? Please join our digital book club, As They Speak: Native Voices in Today’s Literature. Based on a variety of topics and featuring a range of genres, all of the books we will be reading have been written by contemporary Native authors. This month, we will be reading and discussing The Inconvenient Indian by Thomas King (Cherokee descent). Suffused with wit, anger, perception, and wisdom, this book is at once an engaging chronicle and a devastating subversion of history, insightfully distilling what it means to be “Indian” in North America. Join the virtual conversation hosted by IAIS Staff on ZOOM.
In order to have a more intimate conversation, space is limited. Please visit our website (www.iaismuseum.org) to register through Eventbrite. This is a FREE event, but donations are appreciated.
