Join us for the University of Nebraska at Omaha's 14th Annual Wambli Sapa Memorial Powwow on April 19, 2025, themed We Are Urban: From Reservation to City Walking Between Two Worlds. This powwow commemorates the Indian Relocation Act of 1956, a significant policy that aimed to assimilate Native Americans into urban society by encouraging relocation from reservations to cities. This year's theme highlights the adaptability and journeys of Native families as they navigate life in urban cultures while proudly maintaining strong connections to their ancestral reservations. Experience a vibrant showcase of traditional dance, music, and art, as we honor our heritage and the journeys that have shaped our communities. This event fosters unity and cultural pride, inviting all to participate in the rich tapestry of Native identity and experience in both urban and rural settings.
