Friend, This week we are honored to have guests who will discuss Indigenous issues as we approach the Independence Day holiday next week. We wanted to shed some light on the true forebears of the places we all call home. Each year, people celebrate this holiday without acknowledging the long history of our Indigenous friends and family. Out In Front: This Land Is OUR Land will be live at 5pm on Thursday, June 30th, 2022. Our guests include Taylor Patterson, Executive Director of Native Voters Alliance Nevada, Jonnette Paddy, a Community Organizer with Native Voters Alliance Nevada, and community activist, Barbara Hartzell. Our guests will discuss issues impacting the Indigenous community including abortion and tribal sovereignty after the recent Oklahoma v. Castro Huerta Supreme Court case that ruled states can prosecute crimes against Native American victims committed on tribal land if the defendant is non-Native. This further limits tribal sovereignty and our guests will explore the implications of this decision. Tune in tomorrow at 5pm on Facebook, Twitch, or Youtube! We’ll see you there!
