"The last few days/months/years have brought a lot of new folks to me, my work, and this ever-aging blog. I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself to anyone who may be new here, and re-introduce myself to anyone who may have jumped in at any point along the last 14(!) years of Native Appropriations and my journey. I decided to write this as a snarky Q&A where I am both the asker and the answerer because why not?"

"Hi! My name is Adrienne Keene. I’m a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, and also Settler/White (specifically Armenian/German/Irish/English/Welsh). I’m a scholar, researcher, educator, writer, podcaster, and more recently a visual artist. Up until January I was a professor of American Studies and Ethnic Studies, where my research focuses on Native students navigating the college process and the role of higher ed in Native communities, as well as cultural appropriation and Native representations."

"This space where we find ourselves is my blog, Native Appropriations. I started the blog when I was 23, as a first year doctoral student. I had just moved to the East Coast from California, where I had been lucky to spend the previous seven years surrounded by a large, diverse Native community on my undergraduate campus, where I then worked after graduation. I arrived at grad school, and suddenly I was faced with overwhelming ignorance on Native peoples like nothing I had ever experienced before. My classmates told me to my face they thought Indians didn’t exist anymore or that they had never met a Native person in their lives. They didn’t have any knowledge or understanding of the issues or communities I cared about, and didn’t care to learn."
