Hello! I’m Nicolle Okoren.
I am a freelancer open to commissions about social issues in the American Southwest.
My piece “A True American Tale: Indigenous Rights vs. Corporate Greed,” published by TruthDig, just won 2nd Place at the SoCal Journalism Awards in the Race and Society Reporting category.
You can read my words in The Guardian, HuffPost UK, The Independent, Irish Independent, Utah Business Magazine, CNN, Business.org, Bridge Universe and more.
I exhale from the heaviness by writing a weekly music newsletter, Nicolle Me By My Name, breaking down the most recent Rolling Stone’s Top 500 Albums list.
Apache Stronghold
Truthdig: A True American Tale: Indigenous Rights vs. Corporate Greed
The fight by the Western Apache people to save Oak Flat once again highlights the limits of religious freedom for non-Christians.
