2022 Champions for Change
Five young Native leaders are the latest to be recognized by the Center for Native Youth for addressing injustices and shaping their collective future.
This 2022 class of Champions for Change includes individuals working “increase Native representation in research, restore Indigenous landscapes, end derogatory mascots, and preserve language, culture, and traditional ways of knowing.” Native America Calling talks with this year’s Champions about what inspires them and what the coming year holds.We are so proud to present the 2022 class of Champions for Change! Join us in congratulating Triston Black, Kaliko Kalāhiki, Maria Walker, Adrien “AJ” Pochel, and Ivy Pete!
