OPINION — "At present, the true story of Vermont’s poor and disabled, the actual targets of eugenics, remains unvoiced," writes Richard Witting. https://t.co/ScMsA2Rscm

Congrats to AJP-supported @vtdigger for its @NENPA awards! Its reporting on the July 2023 Vermont floods and coverage of a conflict between Odanak First Nation and Abenaki leaders shows the power of #localnews in keeping communities informed and engaged. https://t.co/FGnAnyiSmv

@UVMPattyPrelock @uvmvermont @UVMcas @uvmdei You can see here the Abenaki of Odanak speaking yesterday at the UN on this issue and notice the support chiefs of nearly all the First Nations of Canada…

@UVMPattyPrelock @uvmvermont @UVMcas @uvmdei Where is the DEI office and administration’s support for that work? Or for the actual historically rooted Abenaki communities? There is none…

[Odanak Allies @OdanakAllyVT]

@UVMPattyPrelock @uvmvermont @UVMcas @uvmdei For the last 3 years professors and departments at UVM have been working with the actual Abenaki people of the Odanak and Wôlinak First Nations who are fighting against the groups you are platforming here that are stealing their heritage and identity…

TallBear's talk in Vermont was outstanding, clearly spelling out the risks. Leroux's article gives the whole history in Vermont, the backstory that has been missing. Listen to TallBear's talk, read Leroux's article. This is very important for Vermont and for ALL Native nations.

Our first regular issue since going open access was set for a July 15th release/publication. It's a great issue: Race shifting, resource extraction, Indigenous paranormal connections, healing, and land grant universities. Due to a server failure, it might be Friday or Monday. 🙃

I hope you've done your homework @benandjerrys about who the Abenaki people are if you step into this issue #livinginplainsight

@Newsweek also could use to do their homework a little more on this issue — as NHPR does here — there is a difference between self-identification and actual indigenous heritage - check your sources

@KimTallBear @UANativeStudies @uOttawa @uvmvermont @UMaine Vermont state recognized (invented) "tribes" respond to this conference by calling everyone involved nazis and clinging to the authority of the Settler institutions that validate them https://t.co/7uU2rGZE38

[Odanak Allies @OdanakAllyVT]

Last month Vermont had a chance to hear @KimTallBear speak on raceshifting — the response from our state recognized "Abenaki" tribes? The speakers and the First Nations of Odanak and Wolinak are akin to Nazi's. https://t.co/CrYZH0J8z8
