Dr. Leece Lee-Oliver

California State University, Fresno

I am a Blackfeet and Choctaw “urban Indian” educator and community member. My family was relocated to Oklahoma’s Osage reservation in that early 1900s and emerged in Long Beach, California, where they regained strength and started life anew. I traversed different spaces, civil rights movements alongside my mom when I was a child, to music and art as spaces for political expression, and then turned my attention to scholarship and activism, teaching, and publishing on matters Native American women and communities, histories, sovereignty movements and ending race and gender-based violence. My current book project, Red Feminist Roots: Liturgies of Death and Life, explores the long history of Native American women’s leadership against anti-Indianism and racist misogyny in the U.S. I am an Assistant Professor of American Indian Studies and Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and Director of American Indian Studies at California State University, Fresno, which sits in the midst of Yokuts and Mono lands and has a rich and vibrant urban Indian community. I currently serve as Fresno State’s representative on the CSU Council for Racial & Social Justice and the CFA Executive Board. I am the Vice Chair of the Board of Directors of the Fresno American Indian Health Project and am a member of the National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center.
