The #genocide of MMIWG is being experienced internationally. The Washington task force on #MMIWG will not only provide a necessary path forward to addressing this in the USA - it will also provide insight on an international level.

There has been a man repeatedly making homophobic threats/threats against me BC I’m advocating for the COVID-19 vaccine for our Peoples. I’ve reported this to the RCMP, who said they are not able to charge him. He’s come to my work twice. Violence against docs is real and scary.

Lee Maracle
Speak to me in the language of the land,
Wrap me in your story.
Diagonal openwork,
Vertical weaves
The gifts you gave,
on the porch
Our gathering place.
Words, vegetables and sugar
Write it again
And again
Again
Blows the smoke,
Sema to the ground.
You in stars

[Ruth Green MSW, PhD (she/her) @ruthgreen76]

I’m broken in a way that aches to the centre of my soul. My beloved mentor&friend, @MaracleLee began her journey back to the ancestors. She had a profound impact on my thinking&theory. I learned deeply from her. But it is her laugh and teasing I will miss most. Journey well Lee💔

From attending her first climate conference at 11 years old, to setting up composting and carpooling initiatives at her primary school, to mobilising communities, to commanding a room of world leaders where even Biden was taking notes. We are so incredibly proud of you Brianna!

Here is my full speech at the #COP26 World Leaders Summit Opening Ceremony with a key message from Earth to COP: "Open your hearts"!

The youth voices at the World Leaders Summit will probably get the least coverage! So I'll upload them here! Share widely!

The ‘Dish With One Spoon Treaty’ was agreed upon by First Nations 1142 AD. Treaties and agreements have been our way of life for some time. What current treaty is in your region and what does it mean?

Friday is the deadline set by the federal court on whether it will appeal a ruling that upholds an order by the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal.

The tribunal ordered Canada to pay First Nations children who were taken into state care, because the system was knowingly underfunded.
