NDOM is a day when we mourn, but we also feel our strength in political action. Over the years, Plymouth Rock has been buried a number of times, the Mayflower has been boarded, ku klux klan sheets were placed on the statue of William Bradford, etc. There will be a march this year through the historic district of Plymouth. Native drummers and singers are welcomed. Although we welcome our non-Native supporters to stand with us, it is a day when Native people only speak about our history and what is going on with us now, such as the continued imprisonment of Leonard Peltier and Indigenous struggles that are taking place throughout the Americas.
Speakers are by invitation only.
Not everyone will be able to speak, but we do want to welcome everyone, especially guests from out of town. We do not allow anyone to buy or sell merchandise at NDOM under any circumstances. There are 364 other days in the year when people can do so. If you have literature that is free, we will provide a place for you to put it. If you try to sell literature or other merchandise, our Peacekeepers will ask you to stop.
