Excited to debut a series I've had the great fortune to collaborate on with @collegefund to spotlight Tribal Colleges and Universities. These scrappy institutions are centers of Native American and rural communities. #nativeamericanheritagemonth #TCUs

So grateful to @collegefund and esp. Dina Horwedel for being amazing collaborators, and to busy TCU presidents and staff and students for guiding me. Particularly @skcollege and the Séliš-Ql̓ispé Culture Committee, whose story I plan to share in much more depth at another time.

We’re so proud of College Fund scholar Samantha! Her determination to fight for our rights and to help move our community forward is so inspiring! #IndigenousEveryDay #EducationIsTheAnswer #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth #ICWA
SCOTUS has a history of telling Native people that regalia is a political statement & not allowed in court
Told she could face jail time for wearing it, Harvard Law student Samantha Maltais stood her ground & was allowed to stay in the courtroom
