Central Ave., and again at noon Wednesday, Aug. 9, the Ashland library, 410 Siskiyou Blvd. The U.S. Department of the Interior announced name changes last year for more than a dozen geographic features in Jackson and Josephine counties that used the word “squaw,” a derogatory slur applied to Native American women. Some of the new names reflect Native American legends, such as the tale of Acorn Woman, a powerful mythological figure for the Takelma people of the Rogue Valley. Two mountains in the Applegate Valley now bear the new names Acorn Woman Mountain and Acorn Woman Peak. Other new names refer to important animals, food sources, and geographic features for the people who lived in Southern Oregon for thousands of years before the arrival of white settlers. Registration is required to attend the online version of this program. To register or for further details, see jcls.libcal.com or call 541-774-6980.
