“For centuries, the stories and experiences of Indigenous Americans have been suppressed or erased altogether. Indigenous Voices underscores HuffPost’s commitment to report with empathy and put people at the heart of every story. We’re excited to highlight the vast array of stories and experiences of Indigenous people for our massive, global audience,” said Danielle Belton, HuffPost Editor-in-Chief.

"Widespread cultural erasure has prevented many of us from examining Indigenous stories and understanding the complexities that tribal communities experience today. Indigenous Voices will be a space for nuanced conversations about what it means to survive and thrive in this cultural, geographical, and inherently political identity," said Punjabi.

As Indigenous journalist and Voices contributor Chyana Marie Sage said, “I just hope that young Native kids realize that the world is theirs. It's not easy being the only person that looks like you in the room, but we all follow the footsteps of those who came before us -- whether they're blood relatives or your Indigenous relatives. It's the people who come before us that have made it a little easier to reach these heights and enter doors that haven't opened for Indigenous people in the past. Amidst all the adversity that has been stacked against us, we are still here, and we are vibrant and thriving.”
