March 8th is International Women’s Day, a global day of recognition and celebration, marking the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. Each year, NRCDV celebrates International Women’s Day by commissioning or purchasing a piece of artwork that honors the struggles and successes of gender equity and justice. For International Women's Day 2019, we joined the National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center (NIWRC) to honor the survival and resiliency of Native women with "The Silenced Sister," a photograph from Cody Hammer, a member of the Cherokee Nation, descendant of the Muskogee Creek Nation, and a photo artist. In this NRCDV Radio podcast, Cody discusses activism, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG), and raising strong young women.
