It's time to recognize that celebrating the life of Christopher Columbus also celebrates the erasure of Indigenous existence. While there is a growing movement around the country to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples Day, more work remains to be done. We are excited to share some local and national events celebrating Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous Peoples Day.
On October 14-15, 2024, Mni Ki Wakan (Water is Sacred) (“MKW”) Co-conveners, Cultural Survival, Indigenous Peoples’ Rights International, Black Hills Clean Water Alliance, UMN-Twin Cities-American Indian Studies Department, and partners are convening the Mni Ki Wakan Summit, themed, “Confluence of Rising Currents: Indigenous Water Justice, Co-Governance, & Indigenous Youth Leadership.” The MKW Summit will take place in the ancestral and traditional territory of the Dakota people, Mniśota Makoce, The Land of Misty & Foggy Waters.
