Mary Kathryn (MK) identifies as a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, an attorney and a playwright; and prefers the pronouns she and her.  MK comes from a lineage of Cherokee Nation citizens who fought to protect women’s rights in the time of the ‘Trail of Tears.’ Through her work as an attorney and a playwright she advocates for the rights of women, children, and Native Americans. As part of our conversation we talked about concrete actions people in the US can take to advocate and project women and children.
