After a break, The 90% is back at it! The D.C. Series is a three-part collection of interviews from Jasmine Tall, Mardella Sunshine Costanzo, and Amber Richardson. Check out their thoughts on what it's like to live in DC as a Native woman in 2017!
The 90% writers Alex Red Corn and Kelsey Dale John will join founder Meredith McCoy on Friday, October 7 from 4:00-5:15 at the National Indian Education Association (NIEA) for a workshop called "The 90%: Building Digital Story-Sharing Spaces for Urban and Suburban Native Youth." Read Kelsey's and Alex's new stories on the site, and then come join us on Friday!
With the news this week out of Charlotte and Tulsa, we at The 90% are reminded of why Indigenous solidarity with #BlackLivesMatter is so important. Please check out Kyle T. Mays' piece on The 90% about how white-passing Native people can support our Black/Native brothers and sisters.
Update: Kyle's important story has been read and shared over 12,000 times this week. If you haven't read it yet, please do! Our first two submissions are up! Check out Jenny L. Davis' poem and Meredith McCoy's narrative under "Personal Reflections." Enjoy!
