*** And our first speaker announcement: ROXANNE DUNBAR-ORTIZ. Roxanne is a
veteran Native, socialist, and feminist activist, having been involved in
revolutionary movements since the 1960's. In the wake of the Wounded Knee
Siege she became active in the American Indian Movement and the
International Indian Treaty Council. She also helped to develop the
Department of Ethnic Studies, Department of Native Studies, as well as the
Department of Women's Studies at California State University. She was
