Mankiller Doc

@mankillerdoc

Watch now! A documentary celebrating the life of Wilma Mankiller, the first woman to be elected Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation.

The first woman Speaker of the Navajo Nation bearing witness to, potentially, the first female President.

Speaker of the Navajo Nation Council Crystalyne Curley is in attendance at Friday’s Harris/ Walz rally in Arizona. She tells me this the first campaign rally she’s ever attended in her life, saying she came out to witness what could be the first female president in the U.S.



Fort Worth’s @nmwhmuseum’s has announced their next class of Hall of Fame inductees! Congratulations to all, including a posthumous honor for #WilmaMankiller. @CI_Magazine has a full list: cowboysindians.com/2024/07/1883-s… #nmwhHallofFame

The late Wilma Mankiller was a leader who united her people, and believed she worked on their behalf. We need more leaders like her.
