The University of Arizona Press hosted a virtual book celebration on Wednesday, April 6, 2022 with the editors and contributors of American Indian Studies: Native PhD Graduates Gift Their Stories, an important book on the University of Arizona’s American Indian Studies (AIS) doctoral program, the first such program of its kind detailing student stories of endurance and resiliency, hardship and struggle, and accomplishment and success
Joining the editors and contributors was Kristen Buckles, University of Arizona Press editor-in-cheif, and Matthew Sakiestewa Gilbert, head of Department of American Indian Studies. The event was a beautiful reunion, full of emotional stories that link each graduate and this PhD program.
