An Evening with Winona LaDuke
On May 11, 2011 the William O. Douglas Honors College is hosting author and activist Winona LaDuke, who is presenting her talk, "Economics for the Seventh Generation: The Environment, Economics, and Thinking Beyond Empire."
A former vice-presidential candidate of the Green Party and member of the Anishinaabeg tribe, LaDuke has worked tirelessly on behalf of environmental, Native American, and women’s issues. As executive director of Honor the Earth, LaDuke has supported environmental sustainability in Native American communities. She also founded the White Earth Recovery Project in order to return lands to the Anishinaabeg people and preserve local food systems in Minnesota.
A recent inductee into the National Women’s Hall of Fame, LaDuke is a celebrated speaker with numerous appearances on television (including an episode of the Colbert Report) and in the political arena. Be sure not to miss this event.
