Jessica Hauger writes on Kiowa healer Laura Pedrick for "Nursing Clio"

Jessica Hauger recently published a short article in Nursing Clio, an open access, peer reviewed blog project focusing on gender and medicine. Drawn from Hauger’s dissertation research, the piece explores the complicated work and legacy of Laura Pedrick, an Indigenous woman whose nursing labor became part of her lifelong work to protect Kiowa peoplehood in an era of intense colonial intrusion. The piece is part of the site’s Beyond Florence series, which seeks to expand public scholarship addressing the critical roles of poor people and people of color in nursing history.
