Join us Friday for this week's Iyokpiya Waunspepi with April Matson! April Matson (They/Them) identifies as Two-Spirit and is an enrolled member of the Sicangu Lakota Oyate and the Tanana Athabaskan Tribe of Alaska. They became the Executive Director of Rock The Rez in 2019, focusing on expanding the program in order to bring music and art to more youth and their families. Their mission? To bring the transformative power of music and art to more youth and their families. Rock The Rez is more than just a rock music camp. It’s a space for Indigenous girls, Two-Spirit, and gender diverse youth to express themselves, learn, and grow. Currently, the rhythm of Rock The Rez echoes in Pine Ridge, SD and Rosebud, SD. But who knows where the music will take us next? From growing up in Rapid City, SD to now living in Minneapolis, MN with their two children, April’s journey is a testament to the power of music and the importance of cultural identity.
