To those ends, we create, research, review, publish, present, and promote works in various genres in a manner that will bring about a greater understanding of our cultures, legacies, and lands. During the current year, we focused on the Annual Tribal Writers Retreat - a space dedicated to Indigenous literary inquiry, cultural exchange, and intellectual sovereignty. There were a dozen Indigenous writers present for the Retreat. Planning also begun for some projects taking shape in 2025. 0 24796 24796 Patty Bordeaux Nelson Director 2.00 0 0 0 Diane Wilson Director 2.00 0 0 0 Lanniko Lee Director 2.00 0 0 0 Christopher G Bordeaux President 5.00 0 0 0 Sarah Hernandez Treasurer 5.00 0 0 0 Tate Walker Secretary 5.00 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Sage Creek Accounting Services 3213 W Main St 422 Rapid City SD 57702 6053882224 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 5400 20002 26887 17455 60111 129855 5400 20002 26887 17455 60111 129855 90600 39255 29 25 29 53 136 129991 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 8 - Other Revenue Description: Royalties.
