In this episode of The Connection, we delve into the rich history and cultural significance of the Nez Perce homeland through the insightful perspectives of Katie Harris Murphy, Vice Chair / VP of Board, Wallowa Band Descendant and Joshua Sigmund, Facilities and Grounds Director at the Nez Perce Valhalla Homeland. Located in Eastern Oregon, the Nez Perce Homeland holds a special place in the hearts of those who have been displaced from the region.
Katie and Joshua emphasize the mission of the homeland, which aims to deepen the connection between the Wallowa country and its people, both local and distant. They highlight the importance of providing opportunities for descendants to reconnect with their ancestral land and heritage, share about the Tamkaliks celebration, and the opportunities to engage with the Homeland as gravel cyclists.
