Brian Cladoosby, Chairman of the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community presents to the Harvard Kennedy School of Government's "Native Americans in the 21st Century: Nation Building I" class.

Led by Professor Joseph Kalt, the "Native Americans in the 21st Century: Nation Building I" course examines issues contemporary Indigenous nations and communities face in the 21st century, including: political sovereignty, economic development, constitutional reform, cultural and language maintenance and promotion, land and water rights, religious freedom, health and social welfare, and education. Because the challenges are broad and comprehensive, the course emphasizes the breadth of issues that leaders must confront, from health, education, and social services to politics, economics, and cultural change. Research finds that the viable approaches to such areas of nation building must be compatible with individual societies’ cultures, and American Indian societies are culturally heterogeneous. Hence, there is not “one size” that fits all. Case studies and simulations derived from field research and experience are utilized to engage students in the multidimensional settings that confront Native societies. Scholars and leaders from Native America and the Harvard University Native American Program provide selected presentations.
