Episode 51 of the Native Edge features a conversation with Larry Wright, executive director of the National Congress of American Indians. Larry shares his journey from (unexpectedly) entering tribal leadership with the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska, to leading an 80-year-old organization in NCAI.
Chris and Yvette talk about the extensive collaboration between The National Center and NCAI, including COVID response, policy work, and Larry's annual speaking "gig" at RES. This year, Larry had the honor of announcing a new MOU between NCAI and the Assembly of First Nations from Canada, reflecting the close ties between American Indian tribes and Canadian First nations that extend beyond artificial borders.
We hope you enjoy this episode - make sure to watch it on YouTube and stay tuned for additional conversations from RES!
