Going places
a Native American in education
by Kesheena
Kesheena writes about her return to college almost 11 years after she dropped out the first time. She says this zine has become "my reflection on my college life and how my identity as a Navajo woman has influenced my college experience." She writes about her grandparents' boarding school experiences, her own educational path, the pressure she feels to perform well, and her desire to "lead my family to something better than we are now." The zine includes poems, a song lyric, and several essays.

Work Description
Kesheena elucidates the Native American experience and dismantles prevailing stereotypes of indigenous peoples. She starts by exploring how US policies have systematically disadvantaged and stolen from Native Americans and the implications of those actions to the present. The author defines words like "powpows," "sovereignty," and "treaties/treaty rights.". --Grace Li
