Originating Calendar American Indian Studies
Jessica Bardill's research on the narrative power of blood and its relation to current trends in tribal citizenship policies, including the possibility of DNA testing, takes further the work she began at Duke University's Graduate School. Her work "Beyond Blood and Belonging" turns to alternarratives for what they can provide for community belonging, including thinking about the ways that narrative acts as medicine.
