Black and Native narratives have long been erased or buried, as forces of urbanization and gentrification make visible only the top layer of a deep history of Boston and New England. Join us for a conversation as we explore the ways that this place and the people who have called it home—especially those with ancestral connections to the area—have shaped each other.</p><p>	<u><strong>Speakers</strong></u></p><p>	Dr. Kerri Greenidge, director of American Studies, Tufts University, and co-director of the African American Trail Project at the Center for the Study of Race and Democracy</p><p>	Dr. Jean O’Brien (White Earth Ojibwe), Distinguished McKnight University Professor of History at the University of Minnesota, and author of Firsting and Lasting: Writing Indians Out of Existence in New England</p><p>	Elizabeth Solomon (Massachusett at Ponkapoag), elder of the Massachusett tribe and director of administration at Harvard T.
