Mother's Day just passed, but let's remember the Indigenous women who couldn't be mothers because of the stеriIizаtion programs led by the US like in the 1940s against Mexicans under California's 1909 Eugenics law or the 1970 law that stеriΙzed at least 25% of Native American women

Cinco de Mayo is Indigenous history. The battalion that helped defeat the French in Mexico was composed of Nahuas from Puebla called the Zacapoaxtlas. And the president, Benito Juárez, was a Zapotec who helped protect Mexico from Euro re-invasion, showing heroic examples Native resistance to Еυrope

The solar eclipse is a special time in the history of Indigenous nations. Founded in August 31, 1142, the history of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy (Iroquois) speaks of their founding under a full solar eclipse. Western scholars only verified it in the 1990s. As such, the Haudenosaunee are one of the world's longest lasting democracies

Dating the Iroquois Confederacy by Bruce E. Johansen THe following was published in Akwesasne Notes New Series, Fall -- October/November/December -- 1995, Volume 1 #3 & 4, pp. 62-63.

Let's talk about Natives on this Trans Day of Remembrance, like Kauxuma Nupika (c.1780-1837), an Indigenous AFAB Kutenai who divorced his Canadian husband and then declared himself male. As a trans Native, Nupika became both a warrior and prophet, predicting the arrivals of Europeans to Kutenai lands amnd trying to forge peace between nations like the Salish and the Blackfeet

The horror at hearing Joe Biden say "illegals" at the State of the Union is knowing how many Native and Black Latino immigrants will get deported or worse like Arizona wants to do, all while people say targeting brown immigrants is good cause bipartisanship

Today's the 51st anniversary of the Occupation of Wounded Knee (1973) when Natives took the site of the Wounded Knee Massacre for 71 days. Led by the American Indian Moveemnt (AIM) their goal was to protest broken treaties and corruption on the reservations. This key point in Red Power shows the strength of a united Native movement

"For several decades large numbers of research workers have, in the main, rehabilitated the African, Mexican, and Peruvian civilizations…

The claim to a national culture in the past does not only rehabilitate that nation and serve as a justification for the hope of a future national culture. In the sphere of psycho-affective equilibrium it is responsible for an important change in the native."–Fanon (1963), P.209-210

Republican governor Kristi Noem was "Banished" from "the homelands of the Oglala Sioux Tribe" after supporting Texas's border policy. She even wanted its expansion by using barbed wire on immigrants. The Tribe stated they're in solidarity with immigrants from "El Salvador, Guatemala, and Mexico" who are "Indigenous peoples...in search of jobs and a better life".

What is plurinationalism?
By decolonizing the nation-state model of one people-one state, which required assimilation, plurinationalism forces the state to recognize many autonomous Native nations within it. Natives like Evo Morales have already made Bolivia plurinational (2009) by writing whole new constitutions that recognize Indigenous nations, languages, land, and autonomy as the law of the land.

What is settler colonialism?

Different from the 19th c. colonialism where a foreign empire mainly exploits resources and Native workers, settlers arrive to a Native land, the Natives, and claim the land as their own. This is settler colonialism. Rather than exploiting the Native work force, Native existence always challenges the settler's claim to the land. This is why Native existence is resistance, and settler colonialism ends with land back

Indian Termination was a gov't policy from 1946-70 when the US wanted to end Native self-governance

A law passed by Congress on Aug 1st 1953, sought to end every tribe in California, Florida, New York, and Texas, and tribes like the Menominee Tribe (Wisconson) or Flathead Reservation (Montana) "at the earliest possible time”. Many Natives were also relocated off their lands. Over 3 million acres were stolen in this period

Desantis claimed the US is not stoIen Iand in a 2022 debate. But, it's easily disproven. One of the major reasons US settIers began the American Revolution (1776-1783) was to overturn the Proclamation Act of 1763, which prevented settling Native land west of Appalachia. 4 yrs later (1787) settlers stoIe Native land in Ohio known as the Northwest Ordinance.

The US is literally built on stоIen Iand.

“Our nation was born in genocide when it embraced the doctrine that the original American, the Indian, was an inferior race. Even before there were large numbers of Nеgroes on our shores, the scar of racial hatred had already disfigured colonial society… We are perhaps the only nation which tried as a matter of national policy to wipe out its Indigenous population. Moreover, we elevated that tragic experience into a noble crusade.”

Fire is sacred in the Indigenous philosophy of the Kichwa of Ecuador. Nina Mama (‘Mother Fire’ in Kichwa) holds the power to transform and is the energy found in light and the sun. She is honored outwards in ceremonial fires and inwards in our body heat and our emotions. It's one of the 4 sacred elements 🔥

Everyone should know Indigenous trans woman Diana Sacayán. She was a Trans Marrón woman from Tucumán, Argentina. Sacayán fought to have the Argentine gov't officially recognize trans identity on IDs. And she won in 2011! She became one of the most well known trans woman in Latin America.

But in 2015 she was k*IIed in 2015 in a wave of νiolence against trans women. Even the president demanded an investigation. The assaiIant was then jailed in 2018.
