In her essay, “Tierra Sagrada: The Roots of a Revolution,” Cherrie Moraga names Naomi Littlebear Morena as a groundbreaking figure of Chicana feminism: “Since the early 1980s, Chicana lesbian feminists have explored these traditionally dangerous topics in both critical and creative writings. Chicana lesbian-identified writers such as Ana Castillo, Gloria Anzaldua, and Naomi Littlebear Morena were among the first to articulate a Chicana feminism, which included a radical woman-centered critique of sexism and sexuality from which both lesbian and heterosexual women benefited” (160).

Title: Impact of invasion by annual grasses on mycorrhizal inoculation potential in the Palouse Prairie.

Abstract: The Palouse Prairie is one of the most critically endangered ecosystems in the United States, with less than 1% of native prairie remaining. The native prairie that remains today is increasingly threatened by land-use change and invasive species. The invasive winter annual grass Ventenata dubia has become a dominant threat to native prairie remnants, as it decreases native plant species diversity and native plant species richness. Although we have seen the effects of V. dubia on native plant communities since its introduction in the 1950’s, the impact V. dubia may have on soil microbial communities such as arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi is not known. My graduate work has focused on understanding the impact that V. dubia invasion has, if any, on AM fungi in the Palouse Prairie.
