Strongheart Civil Rights Powwow [Oklahoma]
October 4-7, 2007. Wagoner, Oklahoma


The Strongheart Civil Rights Powwow comes to Wagoner, Oklahoma during the first week in October. This continues the powerful tradition started on Pine Ridge Reservation over the last two years. Four Directions has partnered with the Strongheart to support the last two events, and we send our prayers for this powwow in OK.

The powwow provides an opportunity to celebrate traditional music and dance, as well as share information about organizing, building alliances and taking action for sovereignty and civil rights of native people.

For more information, contact Duane Martin Sr. at 605-454-0449.

We do not accept US government grants. That means we are dependent upon donations from individuals and groups just like you who support the self-determination of Indigenous communities and the preservation of the traditional languages and cultures which keep native people strong.

We urgently need your help. Donate today! It's tax-deductable and our work produces clear results that you can be proud supporting.
