Plenty of dumbass Cherokees around. No insult to Cherokees just there are a lot of them and they are people.

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.
Check out this talk with Marilyn Vann at Harvard on March 4: Advocating for Afro- Indigenous Freedmen in the Twenty-First Century.
Congratulations!

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.
UPDATE: $678/1,100! π₯Ίπβ€οΈ close to our next stretch goal, the stickers.
This is really interesting history and so worth the read.

"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."
I missed that it was the day but did work on Shawnee possessed nouns so maybe that counts.
The second pair I bought from them was seriously missized after waiting 5 months. 1.5 inches smaller waist than the previous pair of the same size
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.

On this day in 1968, white state troopers fired into a mostly African American crowd on the campus of South Carolina State College, a historically Black college in Orangeburg, and killed three young Black men.
I didn't know how much I needed this show until I saw it. I'm going to have my youngest nephew watch it with me today.
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.

One of the largest oil drilling rigs in the U.S. (nicknamed βthe beastβ) 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.
