Supporting Crow Bellecourt and the NDN Taco Sale

Discover the inspiring story of Crow Bellecourt's efforts to support Mike Forcia through an NDN Taco Sale. Learn about community resilience, cultural pride, and the importance of lending a helping hand.



Supporting Crow Bellecourt and the NDN Taco Sale: A Taste of Community Resilience

Crow Bellecourt's Facebook post on March 4th highlights a heartfelt call to action that blends cultural celebration with community support. The NDN Taco Sale, held on March 8th, is not just about indulging in delicious fry bread tacos but also about rallying to aid Mike Forcia, a community leader and advocate.

A Bite for a Cause

For just $5 per taco and $2 per fry bread, attendees are invited to support Forcia, the chairman of Minneapolis AIM (American Indian Movement), as he faces eviction from the Minneapolis American Indian Center due to rent challenges. Known for his tireless work feeding the homeless, cooking for wakes, and assisting elders, Forcia has dedicated his life to uplifting those around him. Now, the community has the chance to give back.

The Iconic NDN Taco

The featured NDN tacos, made with ground beef seasoned with traditional taco spices, lettuce, tomatoes, and shredded cheese, served atop perfectly fried bread, represent a beloved staple in Native American cuisine. These mouthwatering creations are not only filling but also serve as a symbol of cultural pride and identity.

Why This Matters

Events like the NDN Taco Sale highlight the power of community support and collective action. When individuals come together to uplift one another, they create lasting impacts. Supporting leaders like Mike Forcia strengthens the fabric of the community and ensures that cultural traditions thrive.

Join the Movement

If you're in the Minneapolis area, don't miss the opportunity to support this cause and enjoy the flavors of Native cuisine. Even if you can't attend, consider spreading the word or donating to the efforts. Together, we can make a difference.

Key Takeaway

This event is more than just a sale; itโ€™s a call to action to stand by those who stand by others. Whether you're drawn by the tantalizing aroma of fry bread or the spirit of solidarity, the NDN Taco Sale is a reminder of the beauty of coming together for a greater cause.
