It's not diversity in the United States, if Native people aren't included.

Indigenous Peoples’ Day isn’t just about remembering the past, it is about understanding the ongoing impacts of colonialism on Native communities, while also celebrating their cultures, contributions, and resilience.

INCREDIBLE: a pipeline resistor unfurled a Land Back banner. In the heart of Times Square. On New Years Eve.

The disappearance of Gabby Petito in Wyoming has caused a national outcry. However, missing and murdered Indigenous people get less media coverage. In the same state, 710 Indigenous people were reported missing from 2011 to 2020, a report found. ⬇️ https://t.co/aCYj8OijNu

Search efforts for Petito, whose disappearance has caused a national furor, have focused on Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.

General Sherman’s “scorched earth” tactics were applied to wipe out the buffalo in hopes of subjugating the plains Indians. His vile legacy dishonors this magnificent tree — his name should be removed — and replaced with an Indigenous one. #ChangeTheName

You're Native! Can you review my land acknowledgment, present on a random Native topic that isn't your area of expertise, have coffee with me so I can pick your brain, help me find extras for my movie, give me feedback on my work, help me determine whether or not I'm Native...

116,000 Native American remains are held by museums and other institutions around the country. But the U.S. government now intends to give tribes more power to reclaim them. https://t.co/umWp3swcKz

In the span of 24 hours, over 100 bodies of Indigenous youth have been found. 104 at a residential school in Manitoba and 35 in Saskatchewan. The 215 babies set something off when they were found and as painful as it is, I hope & pray more of our children are found and sent home

Welcome to Canada, where the remains of 215 Indigenous children are found at a former Kamloops residential school, but leaders struggle to accept that systemic racism is real and tell us that the use of the word “genocide” is controversial.

Climate justice is racial justice. Black & Indigenous liberation are woven together, just as our waterways are inextricably connected. Justice for #GeorgeFloyd in southern MN, #StopLine3 in northern MN, cc: @POTUS @VP My @cnn piece w/@IlhanMN ✊🏽❤️ https://t.co/pKZLZy4p8B

The amount of non-Natives who deny Native Genocide is too damn high. Like, they seriously think a hundred million Natives died by accident. No. It was planned.
