He’s the author of Normal Life: Administrative Violence\, Critical Trans Politics\, and the Limits of Law\, the director of the documentary “Pinkwashing Exposed: Seattle Fights Back!\,” and the creator of the mutual aid toolkit at BigDoorBrigade.com. His latest book\, Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (and the Next)\, was published by Verso Press in October 2020. \n  \n \nMELANIE K. YAZZIE\n“Ecologies of Indigenous Caretaking”\nMelanie Yazzie’s presentation explores Indigenous mutual-aid approaches to “radical relationality” and care between Indigenous people\, land\, and water. \nMelanie K. Yazzie (Diné) is Assistant Professor of Native American Studies and American Studies at the University of New Mexico. She specializes in Navajo/American Indian history\, political ecology\, Indigenous feminisms\, queer Indigenous studies\, and theories of policing and the state. She also organizes with The Red Nation\, a grassroots Native-run organization committed to the liberation of Indigenous people from colonialism and capitalism. \n  \n  \nModerators:\n \nCATHERINE FELIZ\nCatherine Feliz is an interdisciplinary artist and medicine person born and raised in Lenapehoking territory [New York City] to parents from Kiskeya Ayiti [Dominican Republic]. An entanglement with archival research\, disarming apparatuses of violence\, and earth based healing inform their practice. They work to reclaim ancestral technologies that have been systematically erased by drawing from multiple disciplines to unearth histories and make space for decolonial futures. Catherine is currently an MFA candidate at the University of California\, Los Angeles department of Interdisciplinary Studio. You might also know Catherine as the medicine-maker behind Botánica Cimarrón\, the co-founder of Abuela Taught Me — an Afro-Taino Two-Spirit educational space\, and a founding member of Homecoming — a QTBIPOC radical care collective. \n  \n  \n \nROSIE STOCKTON\nRosie Stockton is a PhD student in the Gender Studies Department\, and is the 2021 Thinking Gender Graduate Student Coordinator. Their research draws on abolitionist feminisms\, Black feminist thought\, and queer and trans critique to look at political and aesthetic practices of anti-carceral resistance. They are a member of the UCLA Black Feminism Initiative\, and an organizer with the California Coalition for Women Prisoners (CCWP) and the DROP LWOP campaign. They are also a poet\, and their first book\, Permanent Volta\, is forthcoming from Nightboat Books in May 2021. \n  \n  \n  \n\nCosponsored by\n\nAmerican Indian Studies Center\nAmerican Indian Studies Program\nAnthropology Department\nAsian American Studies Center\nAsian American Studies Department\nChicana/o and Central American Studies Department\nChicano Studies Research Center\nCritical Race Studies Program at UCLA School of Law\nDivision of Humanities\nGender Studies Department\nInstitute for American Cultures\nInstitute for Research on Labor and Employment\nLabor Center\nOffice of the Chancellor\nOffice of Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion\nPromise Institute for Human Rights at UCLA School of Law\nRalph J.
