Let’s talk about sovereignty…TRIBAL sovereignty. ?? Sovereignty means the right and power of a group or community to make its own decisions without outside control. This includes making laws, managing resources, and handling internal matters. For Tribal Nations, sovereignty is the right to govern ourselves, protect our cultures, and manage our lands, as recognized in treaties and laws. It is essential for preserving Native identity and independence. This #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth, let’s commit ourselves to acknowledging, protecting, and demanding Tribal sovereignty for all Indigenous communities across Indian Country. #NAHM #NativeAmerican #Sovereignty #TribalSovereignty #TribalNations #IndianCountry #Indigenous #Native #IndigenousHeritage #NativeHeritage #WeAreIndigenous
