Hi everyone,
Happy Indigenous People's Weekend.
To celebrate, I'll be posting a few examples of kick-ass modern art from various indigenous artists from around the world.
To start off with, we'll showcase the work of Robert Peters (Mashpee Wampanoag) whose new mural has just been unveiled in entrance to the dining room at the UMB dorms.

No, Americans aren’t ‘fine with torture.’ They strongly reject it. Anyone who thinks there is widespread American public support for torture is badly mistaken.
The Anthropology Club will meet every Thursday at 11 a.m. in the Anthropology Dept. conference room (McC-4-424). Please join us whenever you can!
Please come to the first meeting(s) of the Anthropology Club! You have the choice of 2 time slots:
Monday, Sep. 22, from 2:30 to 3:30 OR
Thursday, Sep. 25, from 11 to noon.
Both meetings will be in the Anthro. dept. conference room: McCormack-4-424.
We will have a chance to meet each other and talk about what we'd like to do this semester.
There will be snacks and drinks galore! See you there!
Tuesday, September 9, from 11 to 1, the Anthropology Club will have a table at the Student Involvement Fair. It will be on the Campus Center Terrace (1st floor, outside the Dining area).
I'm looking for volunteers to sit at the table and talk to anyone interested in the club. Whether you can come for 15 minutes or 2 hours, all help is welcome! Thanks!
This Thursday at 3:00 the GEO presents the first film in our Radical Thoughts Film Series. Our aim with this series is to engage grad employees, students, undergrads, faculty and staff in a conversation about issues within the higher ed community and in the greater labor movement at large.
The first film we are screening this Thursday is Default: The Student Loan Documentary, a short PBS documentary from 2011 that looks at the cause and crisis of student loan debt in the US. As many of us as graduate students struggle under the weight of loans accrued from undergrad and grad school, this is an issue that affects us students at UMass Boston directly.
We encourage you to come out and view this important documentary with us and join in conversation with fellow students and employees on campus about the complex and serious issue of student debt.
The film starts at 3:00 in McCormack 02-25. Free pizza will be served!
See you Thursday, feel free to invite friends.
In solidarity,
The GEO Committee
