3rd Annual MMIWP & Families March
Saturday, May 6, 2023
10:00am - 4:00pm
WESTLAKE PARK TO SEATTLE CENTER.
Please join grassroots organization MMIWP Families in bringing continued awareness to the epidemic of missing and murdered Indigenous women and people and the perpetuation of colonial, gender-based violence across the United States and Canada.
Our mission is to raise consciousness, unite, and demand action for Indigenous women, girls, Two Spirit, LGBTQQIA people, men, and boys who have been murdered or gone missing, tortured, raped, trafficked, and assaulted - those who have not received the proper attention or justice while we experience the tragedies in our communities at horrendous rates.
This year we take to the streets for our MMIWP Mothers, Sisters, Grandmothers, Aunties, Uncles, Brothers, Cousins and loved ones in their memory and honor.
Red is the color of MMIWP. Please bring your drums, rattles, songs, banners & prayers. Please email roxanne@mmiwpfamilies.org with any questions or if you are an MMIWP family planning to attend the event.
