Who Gets To Be An Indian | Richie Meyers | TEDxBrookings
Identity is ever-changing. Those who choose who is included and excluded tells as much about a society as the identities themselves. In this challenging talk, Dr. Richie Meyers explores who gets to be an Indian and what that says about our community.
Dr. Meyers is a professionally trained cultural anthropologist with an emphasis in sociolinguistics and cognitive functions of the mind. As a cultural anthropologist he explores human identity and the ways people’s identities manifest within language and the articulations in that context.
Currently Dr. Meyers is the Tribal Relations Director & Program Coordinator in American Indian Studies at SDSU. He served as an editor/writer for the Office of the Assistant Secretary-Indian Affairs in Washington D.C. Metro Area. He earned his Ph.D. at Arizona State University (2008). Dr. Meyers is also an enrolled Oglala Sioux tribal member with ties to Wanblee, SD.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
