Kathleen Fine-Dare

KATHLEEN FINE-DARE (PhD, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign) is Professor of Anthropology & Gender/Women’s Studies and Affiliated Professor of Native American & Indigenous Studies at Fort Lewis College. Some of the courses she teaches deal with critical histories of anthropology, Native American gender issues, and the experiences of Native peoples of the Andes of South America. She is a member of the FLC Faculty Senate, the Native American & Indigenous Studies Advisory Board, the General Education Council, and the Four Corners Lecture Series Consortium. She served as a Fulbright lecturer in 2005 for the MA program in anthropology and culture at the Salesian Polytechnic University in Quito, Ecuador, and continues as a consultant to the program director. She is the author of Cotocollao: Ideología, historia, y acción en un barrio de Quito (Abya-Yala Press, 1991) and Grave Injustice: The American Indian Repatriation Movement and NAGPRA (U. Nebraska Press, 2002). She has published articles in Radical History Review, Dialectical Anthropology, the Journal of Social Archaeology, and the Yale Human Relations Area Files World Culture Series. She is co-editor of Border Crossings: Transnational Americanist Anthropology (U. Nebraska Press, 2009), and author of a chapter titled “Mourning, Museums, and Identity Politics in the Americas.” She travels to Ecuador each summer to work with a cultural center in a working-class neighborhood of Quito and to conduct research for a book that examines the ways that persons of indigenous ancestry who live in are asserting their rights to territory, representation, freedom from violence, and education through masked dance performances, organic greenhouse construction, participation in the Kitu Kara indigenous organization, and other community-based strategies of recognition and inclusion.
