My Name is LaMoosh
My Name is LaMoosh is the life story of Warm Springs Tribal Elder Linda Meanus. She grew up with her grandma Flora Thompson and grandpa Chief Tommy Thompson near Celilo Falls, a mighty fishery on the Columbia that was flooded in 1957 by the construction of The Dalles Dam. Linda persevered through this historic trauma and life’s challenges to teach young people about the Indigenous ways of the Columbia River. Intended for early readers to learn more about Native American history through a first-hand account, the book is also a reminder that Indigenous people continue to maintain a cultural connection to the land and river that gave them their identity.
My Name is LaMoosh includes fact boxes that provide historical, cultural, and environmental context for Linda’s personal story. Hundreds of books exist about Lewis and Clark and their journey of “discovery.” This book balances our understanding of American history with the long-neglected voices of Indigenous people. Linda’s story is not just about historic trauma but also about resilience, perseverance, and reciprocity.

Global White Supremacy
Anti-Blackness and the University as Colonizer
Global White supremacy is deeply historical and contemporary—a transnational and imperial phenomenon that is maintained through academic constructions of anti-Blackness. Collins, Newman, and Jun offer context, history, and perspective that disrupt how the curriculum, statues, architectures, and other aspects of the university serve as sites of colonial and White supremacist preservation—as well as sites of resistance.
