Stearns History Museum wrote the biographies of 25 identified women from Stearns County who have made a direct contribution to the history of sports and the passage and implementation of Title IX Education Amendments on June 23, 1972. The project addresses how the women's experiences influenced their lives and careers beyond athletics.
IX and TQH will collaborate to support the immigrant members of IX who are also part of the queer community. We want to focus on this intersection because IX has a handful of members who embrace this identity and struggle for recognition within their Latinx community. IX will work with TQH to support the intersectional identities of IX members through their claiming of their narratives. This will be done at a December storytelling event of TQH, through IX members (and adding a cross-cultural element) as well as queer Hmong and Somali individuals sharing their stories publicly.
The purpose of this project is to plan & design Health Wellness & Cultural Arts activities in Black Indigenous Communities. I aim to curate Cultural Community Festivals with an emphasis on Health Education and Cultural Workshops. These workshops are designed to amplify awareness around community health and well-being by also shining a light on Indigenous Peoples' heritage through Cultural Arts.
