DULUTH, Minn.– Earlier this afternoon, local indigenous groups found a new way to honor those who are missing or murdered.
Dozens joined in virtually to the 6th Annual Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women’s Memorial March was held from a distance this year due to the pandemic. It started with a prayer and music from the harbor. They wanted to honor victims and their families across Minnesota and Wisconsin. Including those of Sheila St. Clair, who went missing 5 years ago and of Katelyn Kelley, who went missing in Wisconsin this summer.
“It’s important for us and for community members and our native communities who’ve lost loved ones to continue honoring and showing that honor,” said march organizer Rene Goodrich. “Support them in their healing walk because this is their advocacy.”
