Hey Twitterverse! I’m researching Two Spirit identity for a character I’m writing and there doesn’t seem to be a lot of info online. If you have favourite essays/videos/interviews that are relevant, please send them my way!

Writer Lee Maracle has passed away. From #TheWalrusArchive, read "Scent Of Burning Cedar," an essay by the Salish writer.

I thank Medium for boosting my piece, but the way it is framed here is admittedly clickbaity. I always welcome critique, but please, please read before critiquing. Fyi I discuss why heightism is NOT oppression in the same way racism, sexism etc are.

So proud that I'll be published in the same house as one of the greats. Sad news, but this legend never stops inspiring.

Proud that the Cantonese radio is talking about the residential schools this morning. More immigrants need to know this and BIPOC need to be in solidarity.

#CancelCanadaDay isn’t about taking away a stat holiday. It’s about using today not to celebrate blindly, but to think about how we can decolonize our country to make it truly awesome for everyone.

Hey @BCTransit - I would like to report this guy for harassment and racism. He was on the skytrain from Bridgeport to Aberdeen a few minutes and would not stop harassing this Asian dude.

hey @adriandix, BC Minster of Health, when I didn't get my vaccine booking email due to a tech glitch, I called the COVID 19 booking line twice and was told "to wait", but when a white friend called on my behalf, they told her they'd give me the link and did. What's going on???

The Canadian census is so problematic. No respect for privacy. Just cause people share a household doesn’t mean they’re comfortable sharing stuff like mental health, gender identity, or even employment with each other.
