The Native South is a complex term, encompassing many different American Indian cultures, peoples, and connections. This week, we talk with Choctaw author and professor LeAnne Howe and Native American Studies scholar Kirstin Squint about what we might mean when we talk about the “Native South.” Howe and Squint describe how Native American literature can act as a vehicle for change, opening up people to Indigenous histories, allowing them to see the continuing presence and influence of Indigenous cultures, and enabling productive conversations about contemporary issues including the environment and immigration.
