Joan Tavares Avant (born April 14, 1940), also known as Granny Squannit, is a Mashpee Wampanoag tribal leader, historian, and writer living in Mashpee, Massachusetts.
== Biography ==
She is the granddaughter of respected Mashpee leader Mabel Pocknett Avant (Nokomis). Joan Tavares Avant has served three terms as Tribal President, four terms as Tribal Historian, and was the Director of Indian Education in the Mashpee Public School System for 26 years. In that latter capacity, she worked to provide guidance and promote cultural awareness to local Wampanoag students and teachers, as well as to provide school day care and tutoring services. She worked with Native and non-Native educators to create a curriculum that highlighted local Wampanoag elders, culture, history, legends, and values.
In 1993, the Falmouth Affirmative Action Committee recognized Avant for her work with education. In November 2012 she was chosen to be featured in the CBS News segment (''Wampanoag: Reviving the language'' ) discussing the Wampanoag Language Reclamation Project. Avant received a Bachelor of Arts in Human Services in 1993 from the University of Massachusetts Boston, and a Masters in Education at Cambridge College in 1995. She is currently working on a doctoral degree in Education at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Avant remains actively involved in the Mashpee community as a Clan Mother, Commissioner for the Tribal Housing Commission,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Committees and Councils )〕 and member of the Mashpee Historical Commission.
