Lecture Series: We the Yavapai People: Since Time Immemorial
May 9 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
The Yavapai people, and their ancestors, have called the Central Highlands of Arizona their home since time immemorial. Tales and traditions have been passed down for generations continuing a legacy of culture and family.
Linda Ogo, Director of the Culture Research Department for the Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe, will speak about the history and culture of the Yavapai people who once occupied more than nine million acres, encompassing what is known today as central and western Arizona. She will share some of the challenges and successes of the Yavapai people, specifically our neighbors the Yavapai-Prescott Indian Tribe.
In connection with America250, this lecture will highlight central themes related to defining who “we the people” are, emphasizing “unfinished revolutions”, and the importance of “power of place” – where we live.
