Tuesday, January 23rd at 7 pm: Now Who Shall Judge the Indians?” An
Examination of European Colonization of North America (VIRTUAL).
“Now Who Shall Judge the Indians?” How 500 Years of Colonization Has Impacted the
Abenaki Peoples of New Hampshire and the Northeast.
The “People of the Dawnland” (Abenaki/Wabanaki) of New Hampshire and the
Northeast are the first Indigenous peoples in North America to have had contact with
Europeans.
In this presentation, Anne examines how European colonization of North America
impacted generations of Abenaki/Wabanaki people and highlights the ways in which the
Abenaki/Wabanaki peoples have acted as agents of their own change through
education, self-advocacy, efforts to revitalize their languages and traditional arts, and by
working with archeologists, anthropologists, and scientists to recover and reveal more
about their history and traditional knowledge.
