STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

A free conversation about Standing Rock will be held at 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 13 at Ketchum’s Community Library.

The conversation will feature La Nada War Jack, a tribal member of the Shoshone Bannock Tribes who resides on the Fort Hall Reservation in southeastern Idaho. War Jack was a leader of the Alcatraz Island Takeover that protested the federal government’s ill treatment of Native people and broken treaties in 1969.

Joining her will be Sarah Sunshine Manning, a member of the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes located on the Duck Valley Indian Reservation south of Mountain Home. She is now a columnist for Indian Country Today Media Network.

The third panelist will be Molly Larkey, a Los Angeles-based artist, writer and activist who will share ways allies can support ongoing indigenous movements.

The conversation will be moderated by Tony Tekaroniake Evans, an enrolled member of the Mohawks in Quebec and a longtime resident of the Wood River Valley.

The discussion is being held in conjunction with the recent exhibition, “Portraits from Standing Rock,” at the Sun Valley Museum of History.
