MY STORY

I am a multi-tribal Native American; a member of the MHA nation and the Sicangu Lakota nation. I am a diaspora Jew whose family found refuge in america after fleeing the Russian pogroms in 1905. I am the result of colonial violence and Indigenous resilience of two ancient peoples from opposite sides of the earth whose destinies collided here on Turtle Island (America).

My focus is on fighting back against the anti-indigenous and anti-semitic propaganda seeping its way into every facet of our social and political discourse. Through compelling educational content and community engagement I aim to bridge cultural gaps, legitimize Jewish indigeneity, and garner widespread recognition of modern-day Israel as a successful decolonization effort.
