In addition to research projects for UWCHR, Clare planned to travel to Nicaragua to continue her work teaching English and managing education programs in an underserved community center. However, it is no longer safe for Clare to travel because of the current political situation in Nicaragua. Clare will continue to conduct research for the UWCHR, in particular, the collaborative project we have with the Northwest Detention Center Resistance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Erica Tucker<\/strong> co-recipient of the 2018 <a href=\"https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/humanrights\/funds\/peter-mack-and-jamie-mayerfeld-fund\/\">Peter Mack and Jamie Mayerfeld Award<\/a>. Erica intends to construct an archive based on her own family&#8217;s experiences as Native Americans whose land was stolen. Ms. Tucker writes, &#8220;I attempt to create a family archive alongside the history of the Long Walk of the Din\u00e9 and a feminist critical discourse analysis of newspaper articles published during the mid-1800s. My family\u2019s oral histories include stories of my great-great grandparents, whose land and livelihood in Canyon de Chelly were stolen when they were forced to participate in the Long Walk. The most important purpose of my travel is to perform interviews with family members who still reside in the region. Many of my elders have passed, but a few remain, and I am honored to have the opportunity not only to visit and hear their stories but to document them as part of a larger, critical work.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The UW Center for Human Rights is proud to present six fellowships to students for their human rights work.
