Host Dr. J. Kehaulani Kauanui interviews with Dr. Renya Ramirez (Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska), Assistant Professor of American Studies at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who discusses her new book, Native Hubs: Culture, Community, and Belonging in Silicon Valley and Beyond, which investigates how urban Native Americans negotiate what she argues is a transnational existence. The vast majority of Native Americans in the United States live in cities. Learn about activism in this region and how urban Indians have pressed their tribes, local institutions, and the federal government to expand typical notions of citizenship.
