When it came time to vote, we voted for you @JoeBiden And now, we need you to appoint @RepDebHaaland for Dept of @Interior. Now is the time to elect Native leaders to shepherd this new administration into an environmentally ethical future. #DEBFORINTERIOR
We’re outraged by a California teacher’s behavior where she is seen in a video wearing a headdress & mocking Native cultures. This conduct is extremely disrespectful.
@RiversideUSD must create a safe environment that respects students’ culture. https://t.co/tHSa52JguM

We're treading lightly as we receive news, grieve, process & come undone over the news of #residentialschools. We knew these graves existed. This said we aren't any more prepared to know that more children who could've been grandparents by now weren't afforded the chance.
Native and Indigenous students have been disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Join us in the movement to demand #IndigenousEducationNow https://t.co/dFuIMOVITg

Over 130 Indian residential schools were identified through Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission - which culminated in 2015. @NABSHC has found 2x that number (367) in the U.S. Most of which had graveyards for the children.
