Missing and Murdered

Missing and Murdered

Lydia Barnes, Autumn Phillips, and Christine Worning

Lydia Barnes: This class and all its projects were a wonderful chance to further pursuer a lifelong interest

Autumn Phillips: I am in my last semester at RVCC. I will be transferring to Montclair State University and will be participating in the Honors program. I will be majoring in Psychology with a minor in pre-law studies. I was able to use this project to demonstrate my interest in justice, equality, and awareness for not only indigenous groups but underserved and oppressed groups as well. The Indigenous North America Pop Up Event pushed me outside my comfort zone academically, but proved to be vital in changing my plans for the future. This project helped me decide on a pre-law track because it allowed me to explore political demonstration, activism, and social involvement, all of which I hope to continue exploring at Montclair State University.

Christine Worning: I just recently moved back to the US to start at RVCC, after living in Denmark for the past couple of years. My goal is to continue on to a 4 year school, and get my bachelor's degree in anthropology.

The project is a protest aiming to raise awareness surrounding missing and murdered indigenous women (MMIW). We created and printed out profiles on some of the missing and murdered women to show that they are real people, and to represent the lives of those who often just become a number or a statistic.

Created for Courtney Singleton's ANTH203 Indigenous North America course.
