She seamlessly ties together current events with an accessible overview of the complex systems of colonialism, racism, & heterosexism impacting Native communities from the past to the present. Her generosity shows through as she is willing to stay beyond the workshop to answer any questions & have personal conversations about her work & life." - Allie F., Colgate University |  '... couldn’t be more important.'Write-up in the Colorado Springs Independent, “Taté Walker: Feminism is not a single story,” by Patience Kabwasa, who participated (alongside her 13-year-old daughter) in Taté’s presentation to the Colorado Trust about violence against Indigenous womxn. |

 '... growth for all learners...'"Taté had an extraordinary presence while visiting our institution. Her passion & advocacy for inclusivity on the subject of 'Moving Past the Thanksgiving Fairytale' was well said & confidently presented. She had a great deal of energy to share this knowledge & provide growth for all leveled-learners. It is incredible to know that her voice is paving the way for Native American injustices everywhere. I wish she could have stayed longer..." - Brenda M., College of Saint Benedict |  '... moving and educational...'"Several professors came to the presentation, all complimenting her (to me) afterwards. Everyone who I heard from [found] the presentation to be moving and educational. We had more positive feedback at our meeting the next week and on social media. She was able to cover so much information in an hour and a half, without compromising our ability to understand her points. She was also really nice and easy to work with..." - Bailey R., Cornelle College |  '... delivered impeccably.'"Taté spoke at a PFLAG conference I organized on religion and how it related to and/or affected members of the LGBT community... The panel members took questions at random from conference attendees, with no preparation or idea of what the questions might be. Taté’s answers were thoughtful, thorough and delivered impeccably. Her responses were often given with a degree of wit that kept everyone engaged and smiling!" - Terri C., Director, Northern Plains PFLAG |
