About NALS

The Native American Literature Symposium is organized by an independent group of Indigenous scholars committed to making a place where Native voices can be heard.

Since 2001, we have brought together some of the most influential voices in Native America to share our stories -- in art, prose, poetry, film, religion, history, politics, music, philosophy, and science—from our worldview.
