SUMMARY:"Growing in the Desert: The History & Culture of the Tohono O'odham " with Jacelle Ramon-Sauberan

For generations they passed down their rich knowledge and culture grown from their connection to the desert. Join us for a program with Jacelle Ramon-Sauberan as she shares her knowledge about the history and culture of her people\, the Tohono O’odham. \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS \nDr. Jacelle Ramon-Sauberan is Tohono O’odham and from the San Xavier District. She serves as faculty in the Tohono O’odham Studies Program at Tohono O’odham Community College. Dr. Ramon-Sauberan also serves as the Tohono O’odham Nation Education Development Liaison for Kitt Peak National Observatory.  She earned her PhD in American Indian Studies with a minor in Journalism at the University of Arizona in May 2023. Her research focused on the history of land and water in the San Xavier District and she has written for news publications across the US including Indian Country Today

SUMMARY:The Arizona Trail: An 850-mile Mountain Bike Exploration of Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Along the 850-mile Arizona Trail\, which spans the length of the state from Utah to Mexico\, diverse ecosystems showcase how climate change is actively altering life as we know it across the Southwest. During fall 2025\, The Arizona Republic newspaper’s climate reporter\, who earned a Ph.D. in ecology before becoming an award-winning journalist\, spent seven weeks traveling the full trail on her mountain bike to witness these threats\, document their impacts\, and consult with experts on solutions. Rich with photos and video from the journey as well as scientific expertise and cultural context\, this presentation takes audiences through the state’s biggest environmental challenges and opportunities\, mile by mile. From the northern forests torched by a massive fire that closed parts of Grand Canyon National Park in 2025\, to the longstanding drought causing conflict with tribes on the slopes of the San Francisco peaks\, to the energy solutions underway in the Superstition Mountains\, to the humanitarian urgency for answers illuminated at the border with Mexico – Joan Meiners’ trail journey is a scenic and dynamic window into some of Arizona’s most pressing problems\, told from the frontlines of journalistic exploration through literal living landscapes. \n \nJoan Meiners is the climate reporter for The Arizona Republic\, the state’s largest newspaper. In this role\, she has won awards for her investigations into electricity generation\, her deep-dive series on the intersection of extreme heat and housing shortages in the state\, and her commentary on how Arizonans think and approach the existential challenges of climate change. She has previously written and received recognition for her environmental work in outlets like Discover Magazine\, National Geographic and the Washington Post Magazine. Before being lured into the colorful and dynamic world of journalism\, she completed a Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Ecology and published research papers on the biodiversity of native bees. She spends most of her free time trail running\, backpacking\, or mountain biking through as many diverse landscapes and regions as she can.

SUMMARY:Díí Bee Adééhonilzindoo: Knowing the Self Through Language and Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:In Diné families\, a phrase that elders use after cultural knowledge is shared is Díí Bee Adééhonilzindoo meaning by these things\, you will know yourself. The idea is that knowing the self is foundational to knowing\, understanding\, and empathizing with others\, including the land. By knowing ourselves\, where we come from\, who our people are\, and our ancestral stories\, we make steps toward a humanity that is intercommunal\, that makes space for other kinds of stories and ways of doing to exist. If we know ourselves\, we move through the world with open minds and open hearts. Only then\, can we truly call ourselves human. This session is a communal practice toward knowing the self through language and storytelling. Through discussion\, interactive activities\, and other meaningful ways of doing\, we will meet the needs of your community by thinking creatively and critically about what it means to know the self and what it means to be human. \nNote: Storytelling is purposeful and communal. Storytellers will often adjust the nature of their stories to meet the needs of their family or their community. In honor of this ancestral tradition\, this session can be modified in consultation with the presenter and the community that is requesting this session. \nDr. Manny Loley is a Diné storyteller\, educator\, and editor. He is ‘Áshįįhi born for Tó Baazhní’ázhí; his maternal grandparents are the Tódích’íi’nii and his paternal grandparents are the Kinyaa’áanii. Dr. Loley is from Tsétah Tó Ák’olí on the Navajo Nation. He holds a Ph.D. in English and Literary Arts from the University of Denver. Dr. Loley is the Editor for Leading the Way Magazine\, and he co-founded and directed the Emerging Diné Writers’ Institute. His creative and critical work has found homes in Poetry Magazine\, Pleaides Magazine\, the Massachusetts Review\, the Santa Fe Literary Review\, Broadsided Press\, the Yellow Medicine Review\, and the Diné Reader: an Anthology of Navajo Literature\, among others. His writing has been thrice nominated for Pushcart Prizes. Loley is at work on a novel titled They Collect Rain in Their Palms.

DESCRIPTION:This presentation invites audiences into the vibrant world of Phoenix-born artist Antoinette Cauley\, whose powerful murals and community activism are deeply shaped by her connection to place. Through personal storytelling\, striking visuals\, and reflection on her journey of self-discovery\, Cauley explores how understanding her identity and hometown became the foundation for her art and her impact on Arizona’s cultural landscape.
