@FNPArts A:--it is breath and life giving connectivity; it is strength in building and growth, it is the future creating and the foundation of our communities through Kinship...

[First Nations Performing Arts @FNPArts]

What does Kinship mean to you?

[melanin mvskoke @MelaninMvskoke]

“…colonization, I repeat, dehumanizes even the most civilized man; that colonial activity, colonial enterprise, colonial conquest, which is based on contempt, inevitably tends to change him who undertakes it;…”

-Aimé Césaire

[melanin mvskoke @MelaninMvskoke]

Aimé Césaire reminds us that when sympathizers of conquest boast about and justify the “progress” and “achievements” of colonialism, they are glorifying the things attained (“thingification”) at the cost of cultures, histories, futures, land-human kinships, and human life!

It's #WomensHistoryMonth! Day 1 of influential Native women: Tulalip activist Janet McCloud (1934-2003), a key figure in the 1960s "fish-ins" in the Pacific Northwest that led to the monumental 1974 Boldt Decision.
