Gathering of Nations
Welcome to the Native American Community Academy student project sponsored by The Gathering of Nations project on micro-activism, empowered by The Golden Opportunity! We want to see what can happen when students are given a small amount of money and a camera. We want to see how students choose to take small-scale actions and how those actions ripple out across their community and the world. We believe this movement can change the world one micro-act at a time!
