Join us! May 17th and May 18th, 2025
In this time of climate chaos, human rights crisis, and environmental injustice it is more
important than ever that we gather in ceremony, strategy, and action. The Fourth Convening of
the Four Winds, to be held at the Old Ponca Agency Grounds in Niobrara Nebraska, embodies
this spirit.
Co-hosted by the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska, The Ponca PaThaTa, and Movement
Rights, we invite you to join this two-day gathering of relatives, allies, activists, wisdom keepers,
and change makers as we organize around Rights of Nature, Rights of Rivers, Tribal
Sovereignty, and Environmental Justice.
We will participate in the planting of the Sacred Ponca Corn, we will share Water and physical
and spiritual nourishment. We will attend panels, workshops, and breakout sessions designed
to shift the Western colonial thought processes around “Land Ownership” and “Natural
Resources” towards the inherent Indigenous Peoples' cosmology and relationship with the
Earth. We will leave this gathering as a more powerful force of grassroots Pro-activists and
allies of Mother Earth.
