I am incredibly proud to support the efforts of the Choctaw organization, Missing Murdered Indigenous Women – Chahta with my friend, Karissa Hodge.
Karissa will provide regular updates so that we can hear from family members of the missing, as well as fundraisers, community events, safety tips and more. Would you like to support the efforts too? If so, see below!
In this first update of many, you’ll her from Alicia (absentee Shawnee) about her daughter, Skye Jim (Sac & Fox), a mother of 5 who in January 2021 was found deceased in the middle of winter, under a bridge. Skye’s case has not yet been solved, so please see her photo included in this post, and learn more at justiceforskyejim.com.
