“The strength of the religion is what holds us together . . .”

…and for my children, my grandchildren, my brothers and sisters, it’s something that we can’t let go. … All Native Americans and those yet to be born need to be taught the only way Indigenous rights have some kind of leverage is if you don’t give your sovereignty or your religious way away to anybody.”

~Wendsler Nosie Sr., from Matika Wilbur’s book Project 562: Changing the Way We See Native America
