Native American COVID relief and a Duke connection

[clinresga]

I now that many DBR regulars head straight to the forums, bypassing the "front page." I wanted to be sure that everyone saw JD King's story An elegant bit of covid-19 grace, chronicling the remarkable connection between the Irish and Native Americans, dating back to the Irish famine of the 1840's. Now the Irish are returning the favor by supporting the besieged Native American community. Playing a prominent role, and rocking a Duke sweatshirt on the GoFundMe page video, is a Duke grad, Shandiin Herrera, a '19 grad with an amazing resume.

I think it would be great for the DBR community to add our support, for a good cause and in solidarity with a graduate who represents Duke so well.
