REPOST for Special Projects Officer - Research, Office of Indigenous Initiatives U of T. https://t.co/53GVHR5nBg or https://t.co/9Yesfzk9jm Please share, Nia:wen
5 years ago, the State of Hawaii arrested Indigenous elders blocking construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope at Mauna Kea. The pain & pride I felt that day replays over & over again. Generations of Kānaka Maoli have prevented desecration & destruction of our sacred mountain.

Canada Reaches Deadline to Respond to UN over Controversial Telescope
“In a letter dated April 2024, the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination said it is concerned about harm that could result from the financing & support provided by the government of Canada.”
My time at @UofT has been complicated. But a constant for me has been students. They’re brilliant & tenacious. I’m honored to learn from them. There are grim days here, but @occupyuoft is a ray of light shining through genocide & bullshit. Forever grateful for their illumination.
🚨BREAKING NEWS: @UN sends Urgent Action Letter to Government of Canada with serious concerns that @canada and its astronomy entities & corporations through involvement in @TMTHawaii are violating the human rights of Native Hawaiians.
