With Halloween, Day of the Dead, and Native American Heritage Month right around the corner, it’s a good time to talk about cultural appropriation. If you are unfamiliar with the concept or just want a refresher, here are some great resources.

With Halloween and Day of the Dead around the corner, join us for a discussion on how Indigenous cultures and knowledge continue to be appropriated and exploited for profit. Topics covered will exploitations of Indigenous arts and designs, spirituality, traditional medicine, food, and imagery.
Cultural Survival held its first virtual Indigenous youth fellowship gathering October 17, 2020 for our Indigenous Community Media Youth Fellows. We believe that it is important to listen and respond effectively to the living stories, Indigenous knowledge systems, and human rights of Indigenous youth to generate an unprecedented level of coordination and collective innovation as a global community.
