NDN Collective Stories

“My heart is full. My soul is full. Just seeing all these talented Native, Indigenous people who are just sharing their talent with the rest of the world. That we have a place here. That we deserve to be here and to have our voice heard, our stories heard, our hurts and our sorrows, but also rejoicing in what we have to share in who we are as people.”

“International decisions made around the climate have the most direct, immediate, and severe impact on Indigenous peoples across the globe. Many Indigenous people live in areas rich with the minerals needed for new ‘green’ technologies, yet the final COP28 deal fails to protect Indigenous rights."

From the beginning, we have made clear that our actions to hold owners of the Grand Gateway Hotel accountable for their discrimination and violence against Native people is part of a much bigger fight to address the rampant racism in Rapid City. 

"Nos sentimos honrados de redistribuir estos recursos a través del Fondo de Acción Comunitaria, para fortalecer a los pueblos, comunidades y movimientos Indígenas que se movilizan para defender sus derechos y territorios y responder a desastres climáticos en sus tierras natales"

«Nous sommes fiers de rematrier ces ressources grâce au Fonds d'action communautaire, afin de soutenir les peuples autochtones, les communautés et les mouvements qui se mobilisent pour défendre leurs droits et leurs territoires et répondre aux catastrophes climatiques dans leurs pays d'origine»

"Our people contribute the least to climate change and are the most impacted. All of you in the industrial and technological world have lands to return home to and we do not — we are now climate refugees. We may be small and insignificant to the rest of the industrial world but we are content with what little we have."

“We are honored to rematriate these resources through the Community Action Fund, to bolster the Indigenous people, communities, and movements mobilizing to defend their rights and territories and respond to climate disasters in their homelands.”
