One Spirit is a club at Pascack Valley High school in hillsdale, new jersey. After making connections with Lakota organizations on the Cheyenne River and Pine Ridge reservations, PV started it to educate our community about Native American history and the current experience and beauty of indigenous culture and people.
PV ONE SPIRIT believes it is our responsibility as americans and students to educate ourselves and others about native american culture and values.
As a club, PV ONE SPIRIT aims to educate ourselves and our community about indigenous history, culture, and current events. We aim to amplify Native American voices, not speak over them.
Because of this, we have connections with the Lakota people on the Cheyenne River and Pine Ridge Reservations. These connections help give us a better understanding of indigenous culture, how we can better educate ourselves, and what we can do to help out.
Another important connection we have is with TEEEM. We formed TEEEM LAKOTA in 2019, and you can read more about what we do with teeem here.
