Indigenous Peoples’ Day isn’t just about remembering the past, it is about understanding the ongoing impacts of colonialism on Native communities, while also celebrating their cultures, contributions, and resilience.

General Sherman’s “scorched earth” tactics were applied to wipe out the buffalo in hopes of subjugating the plains Indians. His vile legacy dishonors this magnificent tree — his name should be removed — and replaced with an Indigenous one. #ChangeTheName – at Los Angeles, CA

Never not going to retweet @m7mdkurd's CNN interview. He was so brilliant and so ready from the very start I had to transcribe it.

Climate justice is racial justice. Black & Indigenous liberation are woven together, just as our waterways are inextricably connected. Justice for #GeorgeFloyd in southern MN, #StopLine3 in northern MN, cc: @POTUS @VP My @cnn piece w/@IlhanMN ✊🏽❤️ cnn.it/39YkQdS

The amount of non-Natives who deny Native Genocide is too damn high. Like, they seriously think a hundred million Natives died by accident. No. It was planned.
