To Honor Native American Heritage Month our program this month will be on Missing Murdered Indigenous Women. This is a movement that highlights how Native women go missing or are murdered at higher rates. There are resources available to help spread awareness and tell their stories in accurate ways.

Our speaker will be Jordan Dresser who is a member of the Northern Arapaho Tribe located on the Wind River Indian Reservation in central Wyoming. He graduated from the University of Wyoming with a Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism and a Master of Arts degree in museum studies from the University of San Francisco. Dresser served as the Chairman of the Northern Arapaho Tribe. He is a filmmaker and his latest film, Who She Is, won an Emmy. His other films include What Was Ours, Home from School: the Children of Carlisle and The Art of Home. He currently serves as the Curator of Collections at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery.
