ABOUT THE SPEAKERS

DR. MISHUANA GOEMAN, Tonawanda Band of Seneca, is currently a Professor of Indigenous Studies at University of Buffalo (on leave from UCLA’s Gender Studies and American Indian Studies). Her monographs include Mark My Words: Native Women Mapping Our Nations (University of Minnesota Press, 2013) and the forthcoming Settler Aesthetics and the Spectacle of Originary Moments: Terrence Malick’s the New World (University of Nebraska Press). She is also part of the feminist editorial collective for Keywords in Gender and Sexuality Studies (NYU Press 2021). Her community-engaged work is devoted to several digital humanities projects, including participation as Co-PI on community-based digital projects, Mapping Indigenous L.A (2015), which gathers alternative maps of resiliency from Indigenous LA communities.  Carrying Our Ancestors Home (2019) is a site concentrating on better working tribal relationships and communications as it concerns repatriation and NAGPRA. She is the PI of the University of California President’s office multi-campus Research Grant for Centering Tribal Stories in Difficult Times. She also headed up the new Mukurtu California Native Hub housed at AISC through an NEH sub-grant, which supports local tribal organizations and nations to start their cultural heritage and language digitally sovereign sites through the Mukurtu platform. She also publishes widely in peer-reviewed journals and books, including guest-edited volumes on Native Feminisms and Indigenous Performances. Her work from 2018-2022 included holding the Inaugural Special Advisor position at UCLA, where she worked across campus to better Indigenous relationships. From 2020-2021 she was a Distinguished Visiting Scholar with the Center for Diversity Innovation at the University at Buffalo, located in her home territories.

ROSY SIMAS, (enrolled member of the Seneca Nation) is a dance and transdisciplinary artist. Simas’ work weaves themes of personal and collective identity with family, sovereignty, and healing. Simas creates dance work with a team of Native and BIQTPOC artists, driven by movement-vocabularies developed through deep listening. She is carried through her life and work by the many generations of family who were and are Seneca, Stockbridge-Munsee, Oneida, Mohawk, Cayuga, Onondaga, Neutral, and of European descent. This extensive knowledge of her family and lineage is the underpinning of her relationship to culture and history – stored in her body – which is expressed through her work – of moving people, moving image, and moving objects that she makes for stage and installation. Simas’ dance works include Weave, Skin(s) and We Wait In The Darkness, which have toured throughout Turtle Island. Simas’ installations have been exhibited at the Seneca Iroquois National Museum, Colorado College, All My Relations Arts, and Soo Visual Art Center. Simas is a Native Arts and Cultures Foundation Choreography Fellow, Guggenheim Creative Arts Fellow, McKnight Foundation Choreography Fellow, Dance/USA Fellow, USA Doris Duke Fellow, a recipient of a Joyce Award from The Joyce Foundation, a Native Arts and Cultures Foundation SHIFT award, as well as multiple awards from NEFA National Dance Project, the MAP Fund, and NPN. Simas is the Artistic Director of Rosy Simas Danse and three thirty one space, a creative studio for Native and BIPOC artists in Minneapolis.

DR. JOE STAHLMAN is the Director of Seneca Nation’s Onöhsagwë:de’ Culture Center and Seneca Nation’s Tribal Historic Preservation Office. Joe is a scholar and researcher of Tuscarora descent. He has over 25 years of research experience working with First Peoples throughout the Americas. His research focuses on culture and history, as well as ongoing socio-economic and health & wellness related endeavors with Native communities. He takes an active role in addressing the spaces Indigenous Peoples occupy across the North American landscape. He talks on the need to promote equity, equality, and justice among all peoples through a number of reconciliatory processes which empowers people to express agency through creative and intellectual endeavors. 

Initial research for she who lives on the road to war was supported by the Weisman Art Museum and the Pamela Beatty Mitchell Residency in Contemporary Dance at Colorado College Department of Theater and Dance. This presentation of she who lives on the road to war is made possible by a Native Arts and Cultures Foundation SHIFT award, The MAP Fund, and the New England Foundation for the Arts’ National Dance Project, with lead funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and the Mellon Foundation. Projects of Rosy Simas Danse are supported by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support grant, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund, and the McKnight Foundation.

yödoishëndahgwa’geh (a place for rest) - a practice as performance

yödoishëndahgwa’geh (a place for rest) - a practice as performance

Our performance on January 3rd as part of Movement Research at the Judson Church series HAS BEEN POSTPONED until further notice.

INSTEAD Simas and performers will be PREVIEWING online what we have been working on online via our studio.

Jan 3rd Movement Research at the Judson Church was curated by Maria Hupfield the evening was to be shared with Emily Johnson/Catalyst and Indigenous Kinship Collective. Emily will share an update on her work and Indigenous Kinship Collective will share a poem or two.

YOU NEED TO REGISTER FOR THE ZOOM WEBINAR BECAUSE RSD NEEDS TO MAIL YOU SOMETHING FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION.

PLEASE REGISTER ASAP. WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO SNAIL MAIL TO ALL BY THEN.

Please join Simas and Sam Johnson, Sam Aros Mitchell, Pedro Pablo, Lela Pierce, Judy Shui Xian, and Taja Will.

The PREVIEW will be a webinar so everyone can participate and interact online. Audience will be projected on our projections screen in here in our studio so we can see you as we share.

This will be live online and not a recording for later.

What are we sharing?

Rosy Simas' yödoishëndahgwa’geh (a place for rest), is an installation, a film, and a practice of grieving, condoling, and being in relationship with each other.

yödoishëndahgwa’geh and Simas’ related larger project, she who lives on the road to war, is a continuum, a practice. This practice includes improvisation scores to be shared with audiences and develop in relationship to place. The practice is done by a group of people who together are a company of performers: Lelis Brito, Erin Drummond, Sam Johnson, Sam Aros Mitchell, Valerie Oliveiro, Pedro Pablo, Sharon Picasso, Lela Pierce, Judith Holo Shuǐ Xiān, Jeffrey Wells, and Taja Will.

yödoishëndahgwa’geh is a vehicle, a space, a bridge between Simas' larger projects. This iteration of yödoishëndahgwa’geh is not tied to specific funding or curated presentations. This situation gives Simas, and the artists she works with, more freedom to decide when, how, and for who this practice/work is shared.

ZOOM WEBINAR

When: Jan 3, 2022 07:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

Topic: a placeholder, a preview, a grieving of the cancelled Movement Research at Judson Memorial Church show on Jan 3, 2022
