What are the future horizons for indigenous repatriation work? What are best practices in repatriation settings, and how might they inform repair work in other contexts, such as education or land returns? This panel discussion will begin by foregrounding Chumash leaders, then build outward to include broader Indigenous repair work nationally and globally. A reception will follow the panel.
