This presentation will be given in a format where you can understand them as a business person who is just trying to stay in compliance and will answer several questions around\, Should I be charging sales tax outside of Oklahoma? Do I need to file in other states even if I’m not selling a taxable item? Does it matter if I have inventory in other states? Attendees will have the chance to ask the experts their small business questions and will receive a copy of the presentation. \nSpeaker(s): Tom Smith\, BDO Southwest SALT Region Leader Tulsa Office Managing Partner \nReasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities will be made if requested at least two weeks in advance.

In her role\, she works with Harvard students\, faculty\,\nstaff\, and the public toward the mission of supporting programming that fosters education\, \nscholarship\, and builds community\, and collaborative efforts that advance research and the well-\nbeing of Indigenous communities. \nBefore her time at Harvard\, she was the Executive Director for the Citizen Potawatomi\nNation Cultural Heritage Center (CHC) from 2010 to 2022. During her tenure\, she oversaw the\ntribe’s cultural services including a museum\, cultural classes and programming\, tribal archives\, and\nhistoric preservation. She also led her team in a multi-year renovation of the CHC’s exhibits\,\nresulting in the museum’s recognition as a Top Ten Native Cultural Center in the U.S. by the\nAssociation of Tribal Archives\, Libraries\, and Museums in 2020.\nAs a tribal citizen\, her most cherished role over the years has been as a mentor for Citizen\nPotawatomi youth\, facilitator of women’s ceremonies\, and auntie to the eagles at the CPN Eagle\nAviary. \nMo Brings Plenty is an enrolled Lakota who hails from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. His\ntraditional name — given to him as a young boy — is Ta Sunke Wospapi (“catches his\nhorse”); it befits a man who spends more time on his horses than anywhere else. As a\nMakes Room on his mother’s side and a Brings Plenty on his father's\, he is the stock of his\ngrandfathers who fought at the Battle at Little Big Horn. Those familiar with the battle will\nknow the strengths of those names and understand why Mo sees the world through the lens\nof the forces and sacrifices his family and ancestors made so that he could be here today.\nHis relatives long passed are an intrinsic part of everything he does: every decision he\nmakes and everywhere he goes.\nAs an actor\, Mo is best known in his self-titled role as “Mo Brings Plenty” Chief Thomas\nRainwater’s enforcer on the Taylor Sheridan/ViacomCBS record-breaking juggernaut series\nYellowstone. Moviegoers can now catch him playing “Shep Wauneka” in the newly released\nJurassic World Dominion (2022) and as “Ottawa Jones” in Showtime’s Peabody award-\nwinning limited series The Good Lord Bird (2021). He has played “Crazy Horse” & “Sitting\nBull” and many other historical Indian notables who have solidified their place in this\nCountry’s history. And he has spent a fair amount of time in the biopic world twice\nportraying Charlie Soap — the husband of the first woman elected Chief of the Cherokee\nNation\, the late Wilma Mankiller– in The Cherokee Word for Water and Gloria Steinem’s The\nGlorias\, respectively. \nMo Brings Plenty is an actor\, horse stunt rider\, rancher\, and American Indian storyline\nconsultant. But above all\, he is a man who wholeheartedly believes in human kindness\, and\nhe trusts the good in humanity still exists and feels it just needs to be dusted off a bit. Out\nof respect and honor for those who have come before us\, Mo knows we have a profound\nobligation to leave a livable planet for those who will follow after we are gone\, and he starts\nand ends every day\, with thoughts of how he and we can make the world a better place\nwhile we are here. \nWhen Mo isn’t working as an actor\, he can be found ranching or seeking ways to give back\nto his Lakota communities and Indian Country — ways that include preserving culture\,\ntradition and seeking cultural truth in diversity.\n– IMDb Mini Biography By: Michelle Shining Elk
