(they/them)
When Jordan was nine, they first encountered racism and struggled with their identity as a Lakota woman of color, living in a place lacking diversity and the cultural connections they were raised with. Witnessing the impact of racism, including health disparities for their relatives and other racial, social, and economic challenges, inspired Jordan to create a supportive community for Indigenous people—one where they could feel truly accepted.
For Jordan, running became that community. Today, they continue to elevate Indigenous voices in the fight for racial, social, climate, and economic justice for all.
