Guest Opinion. Divisive politics are nothing new to Indian Country. Tribal leaders and education advocates have long navigated the political currents that trend left, right, or center to advance our positions on Indian education.

Guest Opinion With the generous support of the Kellogg Foundation, Sundance Institute’s Indigenous Program holds an annual, open call for the Full Circle Fellowship. Centering on Indigenous young adults (18–24 years old) based in New Mexico, Michigan and Mississippi, the fellowship offers a year’s worth of creative support and opportunities for those interested in exploring pathways into careers in film and television — including participation in the 2022 Native Lab and attendance at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival.

Guest Opinion. In the Cherokee Nation, we love to celebrate our achievements in education, business and the arts. We honor Cherokee scientists, entrepreneurs, National Treasures, and other leaders and award-winners in many different fields. But we should hold a special place of honor for those focused on helping Cherokees outside of the spotlight, during some of the lowest moments of their lives.

Guest Opinion. The United Nations’ intercession in a human rights calamity on Nooksack tribal lands in northern Washington state spotlights an unacceptable truth: Tribal citizens are the only United States citizens not universally guaranteed civil rights protection.

Guest Opinion. Last year, I signed the Wilma P. Mankiller and Charlie Soap Water Act into law at the Cherokee Nation. The endeavor’s aspiration is to upgrade access to clean water across the Cherokee Nation’s reservation in northeast Oklahoma, which will improve the quality of life for so many citizens, both Cherokees and our neighbors.

GUEST OPINION “What is Black Liberation and Indigenous Sovereignty?” I ask myself this question regularly and have spent countless hours reading and digesting the works of scholars and academics, thought leaders and activists, community organizers and peers. Folks who do and live/have lived this work, who dream/have dreamt up technologies of resistance, and who have translated those ideas into research, books, opinion/think pieces, art, and community-led movement.

Guest Opinion. On a warm and breezy President's Day, the Long Beach Change The Name Coalition hosted a protest announcing their campaign to "Change the Name, Ditch the Penny," at Lincoln Park in Long Beach, CA. Native American community members from the Long Beach and greater Los Angeles areas, including local Gabrielino-Tongva/Ventureño-Chumash elder Tina Calderon, gathered to voice their opposition of the recent unveiling of a 13-foot penny statue as part of the park's reopening, previously closed since 2017.
