Native America Calling: Native American solidarity with Ukraine

Native American solidarity with Ukraine
Ukraine is a distant Eastern European foreign land. But the invasion by Russia has awakened a sense of solidarity around the world.
One expression of support comes from brightly colored headscarves called kokum that people from First Nations in the North traded with Ukrainian immigrants to Canada. But the scarves have extended to tribes well beyond Canada.
Many tribes are also expressing support for Ukraine, citing parallels for remaining resilient in the face of aggression for an outside invader.
