Native Daughters is a collection of stories, profiles and multimedia projects about a diverse group of Native American women. Twitter:

They are healers and warriors, story tellers and law makers, leaders, environmentalists and artists. It is our belief that one cannot understand America without understanding Native Americans. One cannot understand Native America without understanding the historical, political and cultural role that Native American women have played and continue to play in indigenous life. Native Daughters is a tw

o-year project from the first meeting to the finished magazine and website, involving five University of Nebraska-Lincoln professors and about 30 students. The idea stemmed from several brainstorming sessions among professors looking for a new way to tell an older story about indigenous America. The magazine and website products were broken down into three semesters of work: Spring ’09 involving content producers traveling to Pine Ridge during spring break for grass roots reporting; Fall ’09 involving students writing stories, shooting photos/video and creating new media; Spring ’10 involving students editing and pulling together content to produce the finished printed and digital products. Native Daughters Oklahoma was started in Fall '12 with seven student writers, two documentary film/broadcast students and a web student. Four professors oversaw the team for two semesters of work funded by a donation from Muscogee (Creek) businessowner Ginette Overall. The next semester, ten students edited and designed the magazine and website, which is now available for purchase. Both magazines can be purchased by calling Joe Starita at 402.472.8280 or emailing [email protected].
