On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, October 12, 2020, three members of the organizing committee discussed goals and plans for the international conference “Mass Violence and Its Lasting Impact on Indigenous Peoples - The Case of the Americas and Australia/Pacific Region.” The conference, postponed until October 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, will convene Indigenous and non-Indigenous knowledge holders and scholars from around the world at the University of Southern California, which sits on the traditional land of the Tongva/Gabrieliño People.
