She has told the same story to four different agencies, and every one of them said the same thing: this is not our case. So she keeps waiting in the hallway, flyer in hand. 🪶💜
The MMIW crisis is fueled by a jurisdictional maze where tribal, county, state, and federal authorities each point to the other while the clock keeps running. Families are forced to become their own investigators, printing flyers, chasing leads, and demanding attention from systems built to look away. Native women advocates now step into that gap, organizing searches and refusing to let a single name go cold. Every flyer held to a chest is a promise that she will not be forgotten.
She is not just waiting for news. She is holding the line no agency would hold for her. Share this to raise awareness, and follow for the history they never taught you. 💜

America at 250: The Whole Story
250 years.
As America celebrates 250 years of independence, I also remember those who paid the price for its foundation freedom is never really fully celebrated until we remember those who were denied it.
Patriotism and truth are not enemies. We can celebrate our nation's ideals while acknowledging the genocide of Indigenous peoples and the enslavement of African people. Remembering our history does not weaken us.. it gives us the opportunity to grow from it.
May we have the courage to tell the whole story.
