@echohawkd3 "we are not a problem to solve, we are all the answers" summarizes many hard years work, data, & resilience following the wisdom of elders & community to do the best for her people.

Inspiring and powerful talk by Abigail Echo-Hawk at #NDiSTEM2024! Her words left me truly moved. Feeling so motivated to continue our work and uplift our communities. @SACNAS
I am so grateful to @PattyMurray and her continuous support of @TheSIHB and I❤️
.@echohawkd3 is a real changemaker. Her research and tireless advocacy to address violence against Indigenous women have spurred policy changes across the country, at all levels of government.
Congratulations on the well deserved #TIME100Next, Abigail! time.com/7023567/abigail-ech…

Keep hearing “underserved communities,” here’s our take on that phrasing #healthequity #HEP2024 @echohawkd3

“Find the data, show the data, there is no such thing as alternative facts” ….but for Native people the data genocide being perpetrated effectively limits the “facts”, and that is something we need to talk about! @echohawkd3 #HEP2024

I’m grateful for POC working to undo structural racism like Dr.Leaphart. Thomas Jefferson perpetuated one of biggest genocidal policies of Indigenous people and a legacy of chattel slavery and rape. Yet his name is prevalent. We need folks in these systems breaking them down!
I challenge our health equity community to do better
I’m struggling with the continuous use of “food deserts.” As a Hopi elder shared with me, Indigenous people thrived in deserts that always provided food systems since time immemorial. To achieve health equity we have to step out of colonial ideas of food systems.

✨"But it wasn’t until her early 20s that Ms. Echo-Hawk realized that data was not just information—it could also be power."
Feeling inspired by @echohawkd3, a public health worker helping to empower people with data + make data collection more inclusive. nyti.ms/3TmGos9

My latest story for @Stacker explores how Indigenous data warriors like @native4data & @echohawkd3 are fighting for data sovereignty: Indigenous systems for gathering and using data in spite of a system built to exclude them. Read it here: stacker.com/society/indigeno…
I recently sat down for an interview with @RWJF to talk about Indigenous data and the importance of reclaiming ownership of our own data. We do not need decisions made about us or without us. It’s only with us and for us. Read more here: tinyurl.com/mrty4292

When Black scholars get asked to do unnecessary stuff, we should respond with: "that work may shorten my telomere lengths and affect my cortisol levels, which puts me at greater risk for heart disease. So the answer is no! "
Honored to join as a delegate for the upcoming Health Equity Forum hosted at the @UN during #UNGA78. I look forward to speaking truth #healthequityforum #healthequity #health #wellness #SDGMediaZone #UNGA #SDG

Our hearts go out to the families & Tribes after the discovery of children’s graves on the grounds of the former Panguitch Indian Boarding School. We must show our love and support by keeping them in our thoughts & prayers as they continue to learn more.
