Indigenous People: History and Current Issues for the Nanticoke- Lenape 
Saturday, November 7, 2020 @ 3:00-4:30 pm via Zoom
The author of We Are Still Here! debunks myths such as "the last Indian in NJ has died" and "no Indian was left" in New Jersey. The Native Americans in New Jersey and around the USA today seek allies in their fight for social justice and equity. Come listen to what you didn't learn about Indigenous History and be an ally.
This will be followed by a Q&A session.
So, grab a cup of coffee and join us for this important conservation. This event will be live via Zoom. All are welcome to attend. Only those who register will receive the ZOOM event link. There is limited Space.
