Charge of the Committee


The Committee is charged with assessing and reporting on the status of American Indians in the profession and with exploring the sources and supporting the development of American Indian Philosophy. Among its main responsibilities are to identify unfair or discriminatory practices affecting American Indian philosophers in their professional work and to apprise the Board and members of the Association of ways in which such practices may be rectified; to inform American Indian philosophers concerning means of overcoming discrimination that they may encounter in the profession; and to make reports and recommendations to the Board concerning ways in which full and meaningful equality of opportunity can be provided to all individuals who seek to study, teach or conduct research in philosophy. Further, the Committee is concerned with the teaching and research of American Indian philosophers and those interested in American Indian philosophy. It seeks to facilitate philosophical understanding of tribal identity and diversity and of different views of American Indian cultures and traditions.
