I think it is mainly one Eastern Cherokee woman but definately like Keeler some Natives like them. Not only anti-Lumbee generally anti-state recognized Tribes.

Rest in peace beloved Gilda, Snorkmaiden, mama G, lumpy lady, Gina Pina darling. You are with Chiquita now, and you can run with her again just like we did in Carbondale. I will see you both on the other side. I hear there's lots of cat poop there and no humans to stop you from eating it.

"Time and all the world was lost. Everything he could feel and look at had blown away, only a bewitched whirl of damp and dancing darkness was left.
Any sensible person could have told him that this was the very moment when the long spring was born."

My Shawnee child was really inspired by visiting Ihumatao. Pulled more weeds there than in my plot. Indigenous internationalism. #LandBack #MeHokiWhenuaMai #PetekiHasiski

Such an important story: ProPublica went inside the immigrant detention center for families in Dilley, Texas. Children held there told us about the anguish of being ripped from their lives in the U.S. and the fear of what comes next.

How fitting that this happened at Morrill Hall, named after the 1862 act giving stolen Native American land to land grant universities like UMinn to promote settler colonialist agriculture and its extractive practices.
Another colonizer institution perpetuating racism and ignoring its own history.

Investigation continues over massive oil rig toppling on North Slope as Nuiqsut residents raise concerns The Department of Environmental Conservation said it has been unable to get close to the wreckage, due to worries that metal from Rig 26 might fall on response team members.

One of the largest oil drilling rigs in the U.S. (nicknamed β€œthe beast”) crashed to the ground half a mile from an Alaska Native village. The Village of Nuiqsut is concerned that warming temperatures and shifting ice might have caused the fall.
