33. Madonna Thunder Hawk
Manage episode 348438786 series 3351428
As Native American History Month comes to an end, we wanted to cover an incredible indigenous woman, Madonna Thunder Hawk. Madonna Thunder Hawk is a Native American civil rights activist. She is known for her leadership in the American Indian Movement (or AIM) and for her organization work against the Dakota Access Pipeline among other things. In this episode, we look at her work as an activist, protester, and reformer for Native American Rights and the motivations and controversies surrounding some of her involvement in various occupations. Then we dig a little deeper and consider how her advocacy work has helped preserve and improve the lives of Native women and children in particular. Finally we wrap up with some of the film, television, and books that include Thunder Hawk, mention her ongoing projects, and share a little advice from her to young Native people.
