Moki Bear Eagle

(Oglala Lakota)

Oral Historian

Moki Bear Eagle

Moki Bear Eagle is an Oglala Lakota from the Wounded Knee community of Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, SD. Moki graduated from Oglala Lakota College with a BA in Lakota Studies, then completed a MA in American Indian Studies at University of California Los Angeles. He then returned to teach at Oglala Lakota College as a professor in the Lakota Studies Department.

As a young writer, Moki was the recipient of SDSU’s Great Plains Emerging Tribal Writer’s Award in 2014. His early days of playwriting, directing, and acting were community productions performed around the Pine Ridge Reservation, as well as with other tribal nations through the AIHEC tribal college community and Oglala Lakota College.

Recently, Moki was an inaugural fellow in Playwrights Realm’s Native American Artist Lab 2023, which culminated in a staged reading of his story IGMU kiƞ na PAHA kiƞ in New York City, NY. As a writer/filmmaker, Moki was also a fellow of Native American Media Alliance’s 5th Annual Native American Animation Lab in 2023. Moki’s passions are in movement arts and telling one’s own story as a means of healing trauma. This has led him to work with NABS in community healing through the Oral Historian Project.

Moki takes care of several barn cats, and describes himself as an ongoing student in the ways of the cat.
