Abstract

On April 2, a pilgrimage will begin in California and culminate in ceremonies at the White House on July 10. A unique 100 eagle-feather Hoop of Nations will be carried by foot from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. Participants are hoping to bring attention to drug and alcohol abuse as well as domestic violence in our Native communities in order to increase efforts of preventing and eliminating both. Guests include Don Coyhis, executive director of White Bison, Inc.
