Description
Oral history is a powerfully enduring aspect of the Earth's indigenous cultures. Now we are experiencing the first generation of people who might be referred to as "Indigitous" -or citizens of global cultures who have spent their entire lives as natives in the digital world of cyberspace. Audiobooks have now become the format upon which to gather, express, and perpetuate the oral history of these natives of cyberspace. In coordination with Fulcrum Publishing, America's foremost publisher of contemporary Indigenous authors, Indigenous Audiobooks mission is to provide a platform for contemporary indigenous authors to produce, record and distribute audiobooks and spoken word materials. Bobby Bridger, of Indigenous Audiobooks, Sam Scinta, of Fulcrum Press, and Joseph Bruchac, a prolific Native American author will discuss the diversity and breadth of Indigenous thought and culture in the 21st century. This event will take place during the Native American Cultural Celebration 2019: Tradition through Pop Culture!
