Aacimotaatiiyankwi

This blog serves as a space for Myaamia ‘Miami’ people to connect, reflect, and share. Our primary goal is to provide a platform for conversations about our community, places, ecological observations, and shared pasts. It also serves as a resource for educational opportunities that support a deeper understanding of Myaamia culture, language, and identity. 

Aacimotatiiyaankwi is collaboratively authored by a dedicated team from the Myaamia Center at Miami University, the Cultural Resources Office of the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma, and guests from the Myaamia community. Through regular posts, we share insights, stories, research, and observations that reflect the ongoing efforts to support Myaamia knowledge.

• George Ironstrack, director of education, Myaamia Center
• Joshua Sutterfield, director of cultural education, Miami Tribe of Oklahoma
• Kristina Fox, Myaamia education coordinator, Myaamia Center
