The Commonwealth Club is one of the oldest within the nation and produces a large public affairs forum to discuss key issues within its membership, while also addressing concerns about the city, state and nation at large. The tour group was able to visit various Tribal nations across the country to learn and ask questions about issues that affect Indian Country. The tour was made possible by Distant Horizons and tour scholar, Danielle Ta’Sheena Finn from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. The Club also visited the Southern Ute Cultural Center and Museum during their trip to Ignacio.
