Virtual Dialogue: Native American Communities and the Covid-19 Fight

 

From Peninsula Conflict Resolution Center:

Our four-part series of race equity and COVID-19’s impact will conclude with a free virtual dialogue centering on Native American communities. As of mid-April, the health authority for the Navajo Nation, which includes areas of Arizona, Utah and New Mexico, reported 1,197 positive coronavirus cases and 44 deaths. If it were a state, it would rank third in the country for confirmed cases per 100,000 people behind only New York and New Jersey, according to Native Americans being left out of US coronavirus data and labeled as “other.”

Michelle Vilchez, PCRC Executive Director, will facilitate this critical discussion with special guests addressing the pandemic in Native American communities. Sonya Tetnowski, Executive Director of Indian Health Center of Santa Clara Valley; Carly Bad Heart Bull, Executive Director of Native Ways Federation; and Corruna Gould, Co Founder of Indian People Organizing for Change will join our panel discussion.
