Join us on Monday 11/20 at 6pm in Lobdell for the 2nd Annual Thanksgiving Myth-Busting Dinner with speakers, including Professor Caitlyn Doyle. Learn about how events of the 1600s were spun into the American Thanksgiving Holiday, and about the stories told in the 1860s (when MIT was founded) that were mythologized through Hollywood Westerns. Parallels may be drawn to current events…
Thursday 11/23 (Thanksgiving Day), join us for a bus trip to the National Indigenous Day of Mourning (NDOM) rally in Plymouth, MA. We meet at the bus turn-around outside W-20 at 10am, and depart Plymouth at 3pm. There will be snacks! And we will get back in time for dinner.
Events are sponsored by MIT Radius, Indigenous Spirit of MIT, the MIT Native American and Indigenous Association (NAIA) and the MIT chapter of the American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) — and are open to you.
