"Diversify Tactics: Bringing Our Whole Selves to the Movement"

In this episode of Our Bound Liberation, we are joined by Davidica Little Spotted Horse. We discuss having pride in who you are, staying focused when fighting for what you believe in, diversifying tactics, and more.

Davidica is an activist, recording artist, matriarch, and mentor. She is an enrolled member of the Oglala Lakota tribe living on the Pine Ridge Reservation. She was raised as a traditional Lakota woman with extensive knowledge of her Lakota history, language and culture. As an activist and musician she has mentored many youth in how to use positive activism to implement social change in their communities. She has also created and co-created two youth programs to help combat the suicide epidemic on her reservation.

As the great granddaughter of Chief Bigfoot (Spotted Elk), she is determined to carry on her family history of providing sound leadership through example for her people. Promoting self sustainability through food and energy sovereignty is something she is dedicated to achieving for her Reservation. She believes that social change can only happen with productive native and non-native collaboration of open communication with “Safe Space” platforms. She has an unwavering belief in the ability of humanity to overcome past traumas and find healing through human connection.
