We are seeking participants for two roundtable discussions on Friday, April 18 at WPSA. For the inaugural section of the Indigenous Politics, Governance, and Sovereignty section, we aim to bring together Indigenous scholars working in political science to engage in conversation. The primary focus of these roundtable discussions will be on the past, present and future of Indigenous scholarship in political science and the ways the field might evolve to support this work. The first roundtable (8.4) will focus on learning from past challenges and histories, and the second (8.5) will focus on the future of Indigenous scholarship, including how the section can be leveraged to support our work. Non-Indigenous scholars working in and with Indigenous communities are, of course, welcome. Please reach out to the section organizers to let us know if you’d like to formally participate in these discussions and appear in the program. Thank you!
