“Famous” Dave donates stock for tribal embassy project in DC

[NVMojo]

A drive by the National Congress of American Indians to build an Embassy of Tribal Nations in Washington, D.C. just received a $50,000 boost from a well-known Indian Country figure.

“Famous” Dave Anderson, an entrepreneur who also served a stint as the head of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, donated $50,000 worth of stock towards the project.

“I am honored to support NCAI's Embassy of Tribal Nations Capital Campaign in Washington, D.C.," said Anderson in a statement. "There are many foreign nations represented in our nation's capitol but the most obvious is the sovereign nations of this country's first people. Each Native person and tribal nation has a responsibility to step up and support this effort to make our historical and political presence known, both here at home and internationally.”
