Break out the bubbly, folks. Change Labs was just featured in The New York Times! 🎉📰 ✨ The article highlights the discrepancies in economic development within reservation and off-reservation communities and how federal and tribal policies stifle entrepreneurship despite the clearly established role local, small businesses and entrepreneurs play in building generational wealth. The very challenge that inspired the founding of Change Labs ten years ago.🙌🏽 (Shout out to the OG Change Labbers who attended our first event in Shiprock in March 2014!) The article also showcases the story of three Change Makers: Kelsey Lee, Algernon Sakiestewa Jr., and Laris Manuelito. All of whom have leveraged resources like our incubator and Kinship Lending to strengthen their ideas. 💪🏽 ⭐ Click the link to read the full article and see how we’re working to empower Native Change Makers! ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dKJtCCXD #ChangeLabs #NYTimes #NYTFeature #NativeEntrepreneurs #NavajoNation

In 2010, Carol Chambers, professor of wildlife ecology at Northern Arizona University, sent samples from bats found in a cave in a remote part of the Grand Canyon to be radiocarbon dated. When her phone rang with the results, they asked her if she was sitting down... Just how old were they? Find out: https://lnkd.in/gnBpRcYP
