How we got our name

 ‘Native prophecies say that mixed-blood who grew their hair long and wore beads would come to the Native healers and ask for guidance… The prophecies say that they would return as the Rainbow people in bodies of different colours: red, white, yellow and black. The old ones said that they would return and unite to help restore balance to the Earth.

  ‘The story of these Rainbow Warriors is told by many peoples in many different ways. We feel that we are in that time now when the Rainbow Warriors are coming about. (…) So it is a time where we have to acknowledge that we are all human beings upon the same planet and that’s what the Rainbow Warriors is all about.’

―Sun Bear, Ojibwe teacher and author

We saw a need that needed to be met. When a group of us mixed reconnecting natives made the leap to make a difference to bring us all together to ensure no one’s without. Everyone deserves help!
