Nov 5, 2020 Launch. Nov 26, 2020 run. Jordan Daniel Truthsgiving Run
Seeding Sovereignty’s MMIW Advisor and Prayer Runner Jordan Daniel has created a training plan for Native American Heritage Month and culminates on Truthsgiving, Thursday November 26 with a virtual 5K community run that reconnects us to the land, our communities and the truth.
We learn the true name of colonized lands and how to acknowledge the lands we are on, the epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People, cultural appropriation through mascots, monuments and costumes, reconnecting to your local waters and food gardens, and meet an organization doing work.
