During the Israeli-American Council (IAC) Summit in Washington DC, Native American couple Chief Joseph and Amb. Dr. Laralyn RiverWind told Israel National News they see the Jewish People as an “inspiration” and “example” for their people.

“We share a very common history,” Chief Joseph said. “While things have been really bad for native people for over 500 years, it has been worse for the Jewish people for thousands, and we are all indigenous to somewhere and there’s only one place that the [Jewish People] are indigenous to […] and that’s Judea – Israel.”

“As First Nations people, we see your story as a story of hope and a story of healing,” they added.

“You have, through the resilience of your people, been an inspiration. You love life, you have recovered from generations of trauma, and you’re an example to our people that we can still embrace and love life and grasp for healing through the trauma and through the problems and the difficulties that life brings,” Amb. Dr. Laralyn said.
