Missing and Murdered Indigenous (MMIW) Women- Part 1

Episode 270 Published 2 years, 10 months ago
Description
Kimberly Iron, 21. Faith Lindsey, 17. Sabrina Rosette, 33. Cecelia Barber Finona, 59. Jermain “Liz” Morigeau, 23. Olivia Lone Bear, 32. Faith Hedgepath, 19. Sherryl Lynn Jacquot, 43. Monica L. Bercier Wickre, 42. All of these Indigenous women were either murdered or disappeared under suspicious circumstances. Some have been solved, most of them have not. These are just a few names out of thousands of missing and murdered Indigenous women in the nation. Many aren’t reported and most aren’t even investigated properly, leaving loved ones feeling lost, filled with questions, and feeling as though they can’t trust any law enforcement. There’s a common saying in Native American communities: “When an Indigenous woman goes missing, she goes missing twice—first her body vanishes and then her story.” Why are so many Native American and Alaska Native women going missing and being murdered and WHY does it seem like people don’t care?
