Montana Indigenous Groups Demand Justice in Killing of 22-Year-Old Mika Westwolf

HeadlineJun 14, 2023

In Arlee, Montana, community members are engaging in a series of “awareness walks” this week to demand justice for Mika Westwolf, a 22-year-old Indigenous woman who was struck and killed in March by a driver as she was walking home along a highway in the early morning hours. The driver was identified as Sunny White, a suspected white nationalist whose children are reportedly named “Aryan” and “Nation” and were in the car at the time of the crash. Sunny White has not been charged in connection with Westwolf’s death. Mika Westwolf was a member of the Blackfeet Tribe and was also Diné, Cree and Klamath. She was an avid athlete and poet.
