Merry Christmas 2020

Among the most powerful tenets of the Christmas story has been for two millennia "Peace on Earth." The Ojibwe believe "to love is know peace. You must love yourself in order to love another."

Among our readers, I realize there are differing views on the celebration of Christmas. However you may celebrate this season, Happy Holidays. Be safe and be well!

These stories must be heard.

This May, we are highlighting our coverage of Indian boarding schools and their generational impact on Native families and Native communities. Giving survivors of boarding schools and their descendants the opportunity to share their stories is an important step toward healing — not just because they are speaking, but because they are being heard. Their stories must be heard. Help our efforts to make sure Native stories and Native voices are heard in 2024. Please consider a recurring donation to help fund our ongoing coverage of Indian boarding schools. Donate to Native News Online today and support independent Indigenous-centered journalism. Thank you.
