Founded in 1972, Cultural Survival is a nonprofit dedicated to "advocat[ing] for Indigenous Peoples' rights and support[ing] Indigenous communities' self-determination, cultures and political resilience." In pursuit of this mission, the organization publishes Cultural Survival Quarterly, a magazine highlighting the experiences of Indigenous people. The March 2021 issue (45, no. 1) of Cultural Survival Quarterly focuses on stories of Indigenous women. Featured articles include "Living in Two Worlds in Sapmi," an interview with Saami climate change expert Jannie Staffansson; "Head Up, Pencil Down, No Longer Invisible: Being Queer and Indigenous in Academia," by Lindsey Balidoy (Bad River Ojibwe and Tiwa Pueblo) about their student experience at UC-Davis and Native Nest (NAASSC), the Native American Academic Student Success Center; and "The Auntie Effect," by journalist and educator Corinne Rice-Grey Cloud (Mohawk and Lakota), discussing how she uses social media to be an auntie to 32,000 nieces and nephews on Instagram. Prior installments of Cultural Survival Quarterly dating to 1981 can be viewed by opening the menu icon in the top-left corner of the site and clicking the Back Issues tab (under Our Publications). The magazine is available in both English and Spanish (found via the Revistas Pasadas en Espanol tab, under Our Publications in the site menu).
