This event is free to youth (26 and under) and elders (55 and over), but if the cost of a ticket is a barrier, please let us know and we can find a way to cover you!
Together, the Oglala Lakota nation is building a future rooted in Lakota lifeways, language, and education that will continue to uplift and empower our communities.💙✨
Wíŋyaŋ tȟa aŋpétu kiŋ čha philáuŋyaŋpi. (It is woman's day, so we are thankful for them.)
Happy International Women's Day from TVCDC. As Lakota people, we're a matriarchal society. Our women are givers of life & sacred! They keep families together & spirits strong in many ways.
@tvalleycdc “Thunder Valley CDC”, Wo’pila Tan’ka (literally a BIG thank-you) for taking the initiative to address one of “our” many health disparities!! ❤️🙏🏽❤️

One of our guests this week is Heather Dawn Thompson (Cheyenne River), who currently serves as the Director of the Office of Tribal Relations for the USDA in the President Biden Administration. We asked her what advice she would give to young Lakota children and young adults.
As Lakota's, we know that our language is sacred! The government tried to steal it from our ancestors, use it for their wars, and then sell it back through expensive university courses. At Thunder Valley CDC, we work diligently to make sure every home has fluent Lakota Speakers.
