I have been hesitant to share this publicly, but in light of Elizabeth Hoover's most recent statement, I felt like it was time to share the letter I sent her in June 2022 with the research into her family and exposing her lies. nativeappropriations.com/2023/05/a-lett… I have been devastated, enraged, and exhausted over this for the past year. I have spent countless hours supporting her current and former students, trying to process my own emotions, and having to continue on at an institution that gave her a PhD, her first job, and tenure.

Curtis has a complicated and painful legacy in Native communities. He set out to capture what he termed “the vanishing race,” believing that Native folks were going extinct and needed to be documented before their disappearance.
