Dear Warrior Women Project community,
With holidays approaching and the year beginning to come to a close, we’ve been reaching out to people in our community to check in, share updates, and send warm wishes.
Your donations last year helped us create the Honoring the Women of Wounded Knee 50th Anniversary exhibit. It’s already had ahuge impact as an intergenerational teaching tool on the power of Indigenousmatriarchy.
Here’s a recap of what we pulled off in 2023:
• We designed & created an interactive,multimedia exhibit on the women behind Wounded Knee 1973
• We launched the exhibit on Pine Ridge with acommunity event - 300 people came to honor the Wounded Knee matriarchs
• We organized a day of activities and workshopsaround the exhibit for 200 students at Pine Ridge High School
• We took the exhibit on its first internationaltrip – to the Netherlands!
This Native American heritage month, we’re launchingpart 2 of our 50K for Wounded Knee 50 fundraiser. The exhibit is built totravel - so that the lessons of Wounded Knee matriarchs can be shared far andwide.
We need your help to get this exhibit on the road!
With your support, we can:
• Cover costs to ship/travel the exhibit to moreNative communities—from Pine Ridge to urban centers across the country.
• Develop more oral history content and digitalresources to engage students and community.
• Preserve and develop our archive in perpetuity.
