Marquette – The One Book One Community program has planned several events related to this year’s selection, “The Round House,” a National Book Award winner for fiction by Louise Erdrich. The novel transports readers to an Ojibwe reservation in North Dakota, where a boy on the cusp of manhood seeks justice and understanding in the wake of a brutal, racist attack on his mother.
A recorded interview of author Louise Erdrich by Bill Moyers; a presentation titled “Crossing the Line or Not: Hazardous Intersections of Tribal and Non-Tribal Law” by Matthew Fletcher, professor of law at Michigan State University and director of the Indigenous Law and Policy Center; and a self-guided tour through the “Native Treaties, Shared Rights” traveling exhibit will be featured on Thursday, September 29 at 7 p.m. in the Olson Library at Northern Michigan University.
The exhibit is on loan from the Clarke Historical Library at Central Michigan University through October 9.
