We bring attention to cultures and not brands. We bring attention to indigenous people, not only women and men. Our art is from within, we draw to advocate - not for hype or money.

and if my English isn’t good enough to speak my truth, then I am more than happy to tell you in my native tongue and 5 other langues.

Indigenous Women Fighters is a team of all-indigenous women who are also gay, neurodivergent, and POC

Coming into web3, there was no indigenous spaces AT ALL

To change that,
We started Indigenous ghost stories
Indigenous spaces that put Indigenous crisis at the forefront 🧵

And if that makes me unworthy, incompetent, untrustworthy, bending at the knee of white saviorism, a sell out - so be it. Just remember that many of those words, said to me, come from colonialist language and I refuse to be a part of the colonial mindset and livelihood.

I was taught Kahuna Nui Hale Kealohalani Makua, Aloha Aku No, Aloha Mai No and Ho’oponopono.

Our history, our culture, has been hidden for way too many years and there’s an opportunity for me to speak about it - I will and I have. Some of you may not even know our Hawaiian history. Power tripping will not push me to bend, I am a Native Hawaiian woman - I deserve my voice

[Ka’ui’onalani @rokuvibe]

A Native Hawaiian elder once told me
“Share with them, share so they know, and share so they stand with us”

and that’s EXACTLY what I’m going to do

Selling out is such a colonial mindset, as money and the concept of money is invented by colonizers.

Why are y’all regulating #womensbodies when y’all are selling tampons at 75cents each but have FREE condoms in clubs?

1. This had to be raw dogged into me without any slider.
2. It’s the size of my pinky
3. It comes in a match box. Possibly to light my #uterus on fire.

@HermanIngram9 Oh the hopes and dreams for a better state of livelihood

[FiTrigger | Mel🥀 @_ItsMelrose_]

It’s the part where they spit on abortion, take away tribal sovereignty, and doesn’t care about climate change.

I know y’all are building rockets to Mars now, but chill out for a second.

@fox1_x @TheAscendant3 Cult. Didn’t even think twice about it 😂😂
