Hahaha Globe and Mail, way to say the quiet part out loud about race and media with your headshots. Even the backgrounds!

“This is, for us, genocide.”

Keʻeaumoku Kapu headlines a rare piece in a sea of reporting about the Maui wildfires. @McKayJacqueline’s article in @CBCIndigenous examines it in relation to the erasure of Kānaka Maoli & Hawaiian land rights. A must read.

Reports suggest 93 people are dead, 1000 people missing still, and 2700 structures destroyed. To consider this an economic opportunity to acquire land for development & profit is beyond the pale. The colonial speculation of disaster capitalism is happening right now in Lāhainā.

"Lahaina is not for sale." Maui resident Tiare Lawrence talks to @KatyTurNBC about real estate investors reaching out to residents after the destructive fires on Maui.

As the flames cover Lahaina and the rising sea levels threatens to cover Tuvalu, we see Pacific Islanders paying the heaviest price for climate change. #decolonizetheclimate

Seriously, can people stop saying "start a family" when they just mean "have a baby"? My family is countless generations old and many households wide. A baby would be blessed and a blessing as it joins that family, but it would not start it.
