Commemorating Indigenous Peoples' Day
North Dakota's first Native American Poet Laureate and an expert in the history of Native American boarding schools in the United States - addressed the graduating class of the University of North Dakota. A citizen of the Turtle Mountain band of Chippewa Indians in North Dakota, Lajimodiere told the students about rediscovering the power of her cultural traditions after her family was stripped of their Indigenous language, culture, and ceremonies. She quoted one of her poems, "Identity Crisis": One day I heard the drum.
