<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">In the webinar, "Sovereign Printscapes: Why Indigenous Newspapers Matter," Professor Kathryn Walkiewicz will discuss the role Indigenous newspapers have historically
played as a means of asserting sovereignty and countering damaging stereotypes about Native communities. Professor Walkiewicz will trace her own journey working with digitized historical newspapers from Indian Territory (present-day eastern Oklahoma) to showcase
the significance of these materials for a twenty-first-century audience. She will also discuss the importance of inviting present-day Indigenous communities to steward the process of making newspapers publicly accessible through projects like Chronicling America
and address some of the questions, challenges, and opportunities that librarians, archivists, and researchers might encounter as they engage in such digitization projects. </span></h1>
