Kitchigami Regional Library presents Dr. Anton Treuer

Join Bemidji Public Library for an in-person discussion with Anton Treuer, award-winning author and historian of “Everything You Wanted to Know About Indians But Were Afraid to Ask”.  Anton Treuer is Professor of Ojibwe at Bemidji State University and author of many books. His equity, education, and cultural work has put him on a path of service around the region, the nation, and the world.  In matter-of-fact responses to over 120 questions, both thoughtful and outrageous, modern and historical, Anton Treuer gives a frank, funny, and sometimes personal tour of what’s up with Indians, anyway.  White/Indian relations are often characterized by guilt and anger. Everything You Wanted to Know about Indians But Were Afraid to Ask cuts through the emotion and builds a foundation for true understanding and positive action.

Beltrami County Historical Society is pleased to partner with Bemidji Public Library for this and other programs in coordination with our Spring Exhibit, Niimi'idiwag (They Dance). opening March 16.
