Dr. Adrienne Keene (Cherokee Nation) of Brown University will present “The Strange Case of the Hipster Headdress: Reclaiming Indigenous Representations” as Madden Library’s 2022 Womack Lecture at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 17 in the Library’s Table Mountain Rancheria Reading Room (3rd floor).

Starting as a graduate student blogger over 10 years ago, Keene’s lecture will address cultural appropriation and how Native peoples have harnessed the power of storytelling through social media to challenge appropriation and stereotypical representation.

A copy of Keene’s book “Notable Native People” will be gifted to those attending the lecture and an informal meet and greet with the author will follow.

The event is free and open to the public.
