Rock Your Mocs is a Native American and Indigenous people's movement held annually during November, which is also National Native American Heritage Month in the U.S. Participants wear moccasins throughout the day to show unity among those of Indigenous heritage. Those who don't wear mocs can wear a turquoise ribbon instead.

RYM was founded by Jessica "Jaylyn" Atsye of Laguna Pueblo, New Mexico, who partnered with Emergence Productions, a Native American owned Event Production Company to expand this cultural empowerment initiative worldwide!

Around the world, people have taken the initiative to organize:

• Moccasin making workshops

• Community "Fun" runs

• Group photos

• Native American and Indigenous cultural awareness events

• Connecting youth and elder events

• Museums have created moccasin or Rock Your Mocs exhibitions
