Celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day and Día de la Raza Oct. 12

Indigenous Peoples Day
The Vanderbilt community will celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day and Día de la Raza with an online event Oct. 12.

Join Vanderbilt’s celebration recognizing the ongoing existence, contributions and narratives of Latinx and Indigenous peoples in our society on Monday, Oct. 12, at 4 p.m.

The virtual event will feature a panel discussion bringing together four Indigenous-identifying people—two students, a faculty member and an alum—to talk about what it means to be Indigenous in a university setting.

The event is sponsored by Vanderbilt’s Latino and Latina Studies Program, the Indigenous Scholars Organization and the Student Center for Social Justice and Identity.
