May 5 is a national day of awareness for the thousands of Indigenous people who go missing and are killed each year. It’s also Hanna Harris’ birthday. A member of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe, Harris was killed in 2013. She would’ve turned 29 years old this year.
Harris legacy prevails through Hanna s Act, which authorizes the Montana Department of Justice to assist local law enforcement in missing persons cases. Many honor Harris and other Indigenous people on May 5 by wearing red, decorating their homes with red lights, sharing stories on social media and attending community events.
Malinda Harris Limberhand, Hanna s mother, said May 5 is a day to bring awareness to the missing and murdered Indigenous people (MMIP) crisis.
