The riot on the Capitol last week, led by far-right, white supremacists, has revealed the depths of this deeply vulnerable moment in our nation. Let’s focus on a unifying message from Jake Singer - a Sundance Chief, traditional Navajo Medicine Man, decorated Vietnam Veteran, and founder of the organization Walk with the Warriors, with the mission of honoring Native American Veterans for their service to the United States military. In our interview, he spoke to the federal government, saying “a promise is a promise,” which feels so relevant right now. For years, he has worked to establish a Native American Veterans Day as a federally-recognized national holiday. He shared his wisdom, stories and inspiring message of unity, faith and care for our water and environment, as we prepared for our WALK for a Viable Future in observance of Indigenous People’s Day, this past October 11th, 2020.
