#NativeAmericanHeritageMonth provides an opportunity to uplift Native American culture and contributions, and it also allows opportunities to reflect on past; the mistreatment of indigenous people throughout American history and the cultural impact of their leaders who fought for justice. Wilma Mankiller was a Native American activist and social worker who is recognized as the first woman elected as chief of a major Native tribe: the Cherokee Nation. Mankiller worked to empower the surrounding Native communities in California restoring pride in Native heritage could reduce the downward spiral of Native youth.

?? 52 cents. That’s what Native women earn for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men. Whether part-time or full-time, the wage gap remains—and it’s unacceptable. Native women deserve fair pay and economic justice. We can and must do better. Let’s stand together to #CloseTheWageGap and fight for #EconomicJusticeNow. #NativeWomensEqualPay #EquityForNativeWomen
