In his talk, he addressed the current barriers of implementation of the Wabanaki Studies Law (LD 291) and presented how Wabanaki diplomacy can lead the way to address these issues and serve as political will toward decolonization and antiracist conviction in Maine education. Altvater also explored the concepts and protocols of wampum, and its later form of Indigenous writing, to highlight how Wabanaki people have used traditional intellect as tools for empowerment to resist colonialism.<\/p>\n<p>Watch a video of the presentation below, which also includes a presentation from another MHC fellow, senior history major Hailey Cedor.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"responsive-video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"MHC Fellows Spring 2021 Showcase (Part 2): Hailey Cedor and Nolan Altvater\" width=\"1268\" height=\"713\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wSBHK56Blzg?wmode=transparent&amp;rel=0&amp;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
