13 Moons and 12,000 Years: Honoring Indigenous Peoples' Day (Virtual)
Join Tim Turner, an Indigenous Educator from the Plimoth Pawtuxet Museums, for a unique conversation that explores 12,000 years of Wampanoag history and how communities past and present have adapted and sustained their seasonal, 13-moon lifecycles amid changing natural, social and political landscapes. He will also touch on tribal history specific to the Newton area. This program is part of Overdue: Confronting Race and Racism in Newton and is cosponsored by the Newton Human Rights Commission as well as Stevens Memorial Library, North Andover.
