There are currently at least 3 projects on KickStarter concerning the Native American community that deserve your support. One concerns the Mixtec people of Central Mexico who are sufferring through an ecological disaster. A second, titled LaDonna Harris: Indian 101, is a documentary about the Comanche activist. The third is Winter in the Blood, a proposal to make a feature film of James Welch's novel. Each of these projects deserves your support, even if you can only give a dollar. Other Native American projects seeking funding can be found here
