Join AMP on Wednesday, October 26th at 7:00pm in Sadler's Commonwealth Auditorium to hear Williams' inspiring and important words on Afro-Indigenous culture, social justice, and mental health. Crowned Miss Native American USA in 2017, Autumn Rose Miskweminanocsqua Williams utilizes her background growing up on the Shinnecock Reservation in New York and her experience as a plus-size model to advocate for both indigenous issues and body image positivity. Through Williams' work at the Administration for Native Americans, she has served indigenous communities across the lower 48, Alaska, and Pacific Region.
