Looking forward to more big plays like this one from @PapiWhite4 in 2022!

On big issues like land claims, Canada litigates rather than reconciles with First Nations, or sends in the RCMP

A message from the Kanien'kehá:ka (Mohawk) Nation at Kahnawà:ke concerning the RCMP invasion of Wet'suwet'en Territory.

The @rcmpgrcpolice

-Punched me in the ear
-Slammed my head into the frozen pavement by my braids
-Kneed me in the spine and held me down while I was handcuffed and bleeding

I was only peacefully singing our water song hugging/protecting a 70 year old Matriarch

Release @photobracken but also release the elders, observers and other land defenders. #wetsuweten

[Lindsay Brant, PhD @skywaywriter]

Literally cried reading this! It's incredible news for our community's language revitalization efforts and so empowering for the next 7 generations too! #saveourlanguage #Kanyen'kéha #MohawkLanguage #LanguageLearning

if you didn't think it was racist before, well

[Na’kuset S @NakusetS]

I’m elated to see the response from the Mohawk Council of Kahnawake Please share!!

[Sean Carleton @SeanCarleton]

Colonizers deliberately removing the "unceded" part of a land acknowledgement - to conceal the naked theft of Indigenous lands at the very root of settler societies - is why land acknowledgements are still important, despite their many issues and complications.

This trailer is SMOKIN’!!!! 👊🏽

[CBC Indigenous @CBCIndigenous]

On his first day as Manitoba's new Indigenous reconciliation and northern affairs minister, Alan Lagimodiere was publicly taken to task for saying that those who once ran residential schools thought they were "doing the right thing."

[First Evening Star @OnaagoshinAnang]

I don’t think Canadians have realized that we will never have an accurate number of the lives lost at residential schools.

We, as a community, know the stories passed down from survivors about incinerators.

Numbers will never reflect the truth.

And, that should horrify you.

@JericaFraser @janetmarieroger Great question! Karonwarà:ke is how you say the internet or wifi. It literally means on the wire/ on the line. You'd have to use 'virtual' in a sentence to get a better translation. Mohawk is more interested in painting a picture than naming nouns.

[Connie Walker @connie_walker]

The Chiefs are named for former Kansas City mayor Harold Roe Bartle, a White man who impersonated Native American culture.

Bartle was not Native American, but claimed he was according to Mohawk journalist ⁦@VinceSchilling⁩. https://t.co/fWn8qwQB1m

[Sean Carleton @SeanCarleton]

Just so we're all clear, the Kansas City football team, the same team that defends its appropriated Indigenous branding and allows its fans to do the racist tomahawk chop, installed an "end racism" logo this season... #SuperBowl

[tara houska ᔖᐳᐌᑴ @zhaabowekwe]

So the NFL is committing $250M to ending systemic racism...as the @Chiefs play in the #SuperBowl.

Jeezus. Native mascots are racist AF, start there. #NotYourMascot
