What is Rock Your Mocs?
Established 2011, Rock Your Mocs, is a worldwide Native American & Indigenous Peoples social media event held annually and during National Native American Heritage Month in the U.S. A.. People wear their moccasins, take a photo/video/story, add hashtag #RockYourMocs and upload to social media. This creates an online photo album for the world to see and enjoy. Additionally individuals, organizations, casino’s, schools, museums and tribes are taking the initiative to create their own independent events throughout the world.Rock Your Mocs was founded in 2011 by Jessica Jaylyn Atsye (Laguna Pueblo, NM U.S.A.) and beginning 2013 has been annually organized and produced by Native American event producer Melissa Sanchez (Acoma/Laguna Pueblos NM U.S.A.) of @Emergence Productions
Why?
We, as Indigenous people stand united through our tribal individuality, symbolically wear our moccasins, honor our ancestors, and indigenous peoples worldwide, during Rock Your Mocs and National Native American Heritage Month
Where is RYM held?
Where ever you may be and wherever your day takes you or there may be an event in your community
