Murder is the 3rd leading cause of death for Native American women and is a normalized part of growing up on a reservation, so for 18 year old Rosalie Fish of the Cowlitz and Muckleshoot tribes, running came from a place of healing. Rosalie uses her platform as a multiple time high school state champion in Washington, and now as a collegiate runner at Iowa Central Community College, to advocate for indigenous rights and to give a voice to those silenced by the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women epidemic (MMIW). Hear from Rosalie on topics such as how “racism against native Americans is ingrained in our athletic society”, respectful ally-ship, the importance of mentors and community connections, transitioning to collegiate running, and how her mindset shifted from running for a PR to running “so that [her] relatives would be seen”.
