This interview took place on October 19, 2023, at the Myaamia Center, a nexus of Myaamia tribal knowledge production and revitalization. Located on the campus of Miami University—which is located on the traditional homelands of the Miami Tribe— the Myaamia Center and the university share a deeply unique relationship that developed over years of exchange and collaboration. In the following conversation, Daryl Baldwin, the Center’s executive director, and Kara Strass, the director of the Miami Tribal Relations Office, discuss the origins of the Center and how the work taking place there contributes to building the future of the Miami Tribe.
