Convocation: Joy Harjo

Internationally known Native American poet and musician Joy Harjo's work is grounded in her relationship to the earth, on a physical, spiritual, and mythopoetic level, and her writing contains a disturbing mixture of darkness and beauty, at once a lament and a moving incantation. Her work provides a unique perspective and piquant examination of American culture from a native point of view. Harjo is presently a professor of creative writing at the University of New Mexico. The title of her presentation is "How We Became Human: A Performance."
