Nicole Matthews, member of the White Earth Band of Ojibwe, Minnesota Indian Women’s Sexual Assault Coalition
Greater attention has been brought to the issue of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives. Nicole will share information and engage participants in a conversation around organizing efforts and strategies to elevate the visibility of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives. She will discuss what makes Native people more vulnerable to being murdered or to disappear, what these issues look like in your community, how and if systems and media respond, and what confidentiality looks like in these cases.
