Mon. 3/21 at 11am: LaDonna Harris (Comanche) has left quite an imprint on Indian Country - and she's not done yet. LaDonna, known affectionately by many as "Mama LaDonna," has produced a stellar career in politics, civil and human rights, and in organizing Indigenous people around the globe.

LaDonna Harris is featured on the cover of the latest issue of "Native Peoples" magazine. She is the founder of Americans for Indian Opportunity, which promotes the AIO Ambassadors Program. She developed the Indigenous Leaders Interactive System (ILIS) and she continues to advocate for core cultural values in tribal leadership.
