I am an Aniyunwiya (citizen of the Cherokee Nation) queer, Two-Spirit researcher, writer, and artist. My PhD (University of Exeter) dissertation/thesis addressed the meeting point of poetry and eating disorders, with a focus on female poets from circa 1840 - 1970. My interests also include NDN studies, and my fellowship project at Forecast Change Labs examines the language used in calls for Native artists. Learn more at www.thischerokeerose.com.
