Rebecca Nagle spoke her truth on her indigenous culture at a Purdue University Diversity and Inclusion event Tuesday night.
Nagle spoke on the hard issues her nation faces everyday. These include the hard facts that eight in every ten indigenous women are sexually abused.
“I believe in the power and voices of the people,” said Nagle.
As Nagle has dipped in many different sections of advocating from art, to teaching, to being a journalist and a writer, she says she wants to focus where her work can have the most impact.
Nagle has done research on laws for the indigenous people, as well as being an advocate and trying to get new laws passed.
She is best known for being a founder of The FORCE project, and her podcast, “This Land.” In her podcast she is passionate about making complex law issues easier to understand.
