Dr. Preston McBride

Dr. Preston McBride

Guest Speaker
Dr. Preston McBride (Comanche by descent) lives and works on the homelands of the Tongva peoples as an Assistant Professor in the Department of History at Pomona College. Prior to being at Pomona, Dr. McBride earned his Ph.D. in History from the University of California, Los Angeles. Preston has been awarded fellowships and grants for the medical and digital humanities and Native American history at UCLA, the School for Advanced Research, the UC Humanities Research Institute, and Dartmouth College. His research focuses on health, education, and colonialism. His first book project evaluates student health, environmental conditions, and public health policies at Native American boarding schools. In doing so, it uncovers thousands of deaths from hundreds of Native American communities, ranging from Aleuts in Alaska to Abenakis in Maine and from Kumeyaays in San Diego to Seminoles in Florida.
