Trail Of Truth

The modern genocide of the Muwekma Ohlone- Most people dont know that California's Indian wars never ended...

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

Riding alongside the Oglala Lakota Nation, the #TrailofTruth travelled through South Dakota where we shared stories of struggles and triumphs with our tribal brothers and sisters.

Stand with us as we make our way to Capitol Hill and take back what is ours!

On our #TrailofTruth journey, we rode with the Oneida Nation, who helped amplify our struggles. We’re grateful for their warm welcome and support from tribal relatives. Thanks to Council Member Jonas Hill for honoring Chairwoman Nijmeh, and to Gina and Dorothy Ninham.

We are always stronger together than we are alone. #MuwekmaOhlone Chairwoman Charlene Nijmeh talks about colonizers and why unity is the need of the hour.

Stand with us as we make our way to Capitol Hill to speak our truth!

The Trail of Truth visited Omāēqnomenēw-Otāēskonenan (Menominee Nation), the largest Reservation east of the Mississippi. Despite the 1954 termination of federal recognition, leaders like Ada Deer fought for restoration in 1973. We draw inspiration from their struggle and victory

Today, we don’t seek recognition solely as a matter of rights, but also as justice for the ones who have been fighting this fight before us.

We still have a long way to go to reach the truth! Stay with us.

At the #LakeBack Warrior Ride on Red Lake Reservation, we celebrated young warriors and deepened community bonds. The #TrailofTruth is a journey of justice and gratitude. Stand with us on our journey to the truth!

The #TrailofTruth joined allies in historic Little Earth, a key site for the American Indian Movements of the 60s and 70s. We thank communities for their efforts for justice and invited them to join us in allyship as we head to Washington on Indigenous Peoples' Day, October 14th!

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

After 40+ years of letting the government dictate our existence, we refuse to accept any more injustice! Our tribe has been here for thousands of years and will stand strong with our brothers and sisters.

is with us on the #TrailofTruth—are you?

Chairwoman Charlene Nijmeh speaks the hard truth about our #TrailofTruth uprising. After 45 years of seeking recognition, the government still views the #MuwekmaOhlone tribe as illegitimate, taking what was rightfully ours. We’ve had enough—it's time for the truth!

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

The Trail of Truth reached Red Lake Reservation to join Red Nation Action’s #LakeBack Warrior Ride. Muwekma stands with the Anishinaabe in reclaiming their sacred Lake and protecting their ecosystem. We carry their fight with us as we head to DC to demand justice for all.

called out those opposing #MuwekmaOhlones federal recognition. A rule change offers a narrow chance for unrecognized tribes to re-petition with more evidence. We hope Secretary Newland will make the right decision.

Chairwoman Charlene Nijmeh narrates to Nicole Shanahan the history of the #MuwekmaOhlone tribe and how the government misnamed us as the Verona Band of Alameda County #VeronaBand

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

Chairwoman Charlene Nijmeh testified via Zoom to the Bureau of Indian Affairs' Consultation and Listening Sessions on a rule change that could allow unrecognized tribes to re-petition with new evidence. We're hopeful Secretary Newland makes the right decision. #trailoftruth

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

We are the original people of this land. One with the earth and ourselves, we have existed on this land for tens of thousands of years and we demand to be seen in the eyes of the federal government.

Stand with us on the #TrailofTruth journey.

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

For centuries, we the indigenous people of this land have been forced to give up our identities, culture, and languages but it’s time we fight back. It’s time we take back what’s ours, in languages that reflect our struggles, spirituality, and celebrations alike!

Stay with us!

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

A culmination of four decades of struggle, the #TrailofTruth is not just a cross-country protest, but a way of honoring the legacy of those ancestors that came before us and began this fight for justice! They are remembered and their dreams will come true!
Stand with us!

Tribal Cultural Ambassador Julie Dominguez was representing the @trailoftruth2024 at the San Jose @california.lowrider.holiday

Wonderful event, @lowridercouncil!!

[Trail Of Truth @TrailOfTruth24]

The #TrailofTruth saw the #MuwekmaOhlone tribe in San Jose, heads held high and spirits ablazing as we rallied for the affirmation of our tribe’s status despite numerous attempts of sabotage from the people in power.
We still have a long way to go to reach the truth! Stay with us
