November is
Native American Heritage Month
It is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the various cultures, art, religions, languages, music, and traditions of America’s Native peoples.
We hope you also will join us this Native American Heritage Month in celebrating NARF’s 50th anniversary! (Have you gotten your 50th anniversary t-shirt yet?)
Fifty years ago, NARF was created to support tribes with effective legal assistance as they fought to protect their legal rights. Over the years, we have seen some great successes: defending water rights, developing tribal education, protecting graves and sacred places, to name a few. As we commemorate this anniversary, we celebrate that past and the progress made. We have had a lot of victories.
We recognize that our successes are built on the shoulders of those who came before: tribal clients, staff, and board members who dedicated themselves to making change. These victories were made possible with the support of people like you who cared about righting pasting wrongs and creating a future when our country respect the land’s first peoples.
This anniversary we rededicate ourselves to continuing to fight for the rights of Native peoples.
This heritage month, join us as we commemorate 50 years and Celebrate Our Past and Protect Our Future.
