I pledge allegiance to my Tribe
To the democratic principles of
the Republic
And to the individual freedoms
Borrowed from the Iroquois and
Choctaw Confederacies,
As incorporated in the United
States Constitution,
So that my forefathers
Shall not have died in vain.
The Indian Pledge of Allegiance was first presented on 2 December 1993 during the opening address of the National Congress of American Indian Tribal-States Relations Panel in Reno, NV. NCAI plans distribution of the Indian Pledge to all Indian Nations.
