She'll need a time machine to transport her back to the early 20th century when Natives were held in human zoos for the entertainment of white people.
ALT Ashley Robinson asked a question in Oklahoma Day Trips (and side stops). 5m. Where is the best place near Tulsa to go visit an Indian reservation and have.encounter with them? We love Cherokee North Carolina and was hoping for something similar.

An important missing part of this story - re: Calgary police not being aware that they were honouring a residential school denialist...is that his beliefs are well known, and everyone listened to his Christian fascism and IRS denialism and still gave him a standing ovation.

Tonight is a historic night for Manitobans and every Canadian.
A huge congratulations to @WabKinew.
The first First Nations Premier elected in Canada. You've inspired generations of Indigenous youth to come.
With the Manitoba NDP, the future is looking brighter. 🧡

Portage & Main is about to happen after Manitoba elects Wab Kinew as Premier.
I am bursting with Manitoba-ness.
So if more than 200K votes were cast in advance voting, does this mean the election is just starting now? #mbelxn2023

Former party CFO and Ken Lee is promoting voter fraud conspiracies days before the election with baseless anecdotes about unions, non Canadians, voting machines, etc. The Manitoba PCs brought him in for the campaign

“It’s becoming clear now that Stefanson’s rejection to search the landfill for the remains of Indigenous women is a deliberate strategy,” Lett said. “In the outer areas of Wpg and the rural areas there is blowback … a reconciliation fatigue that she is stoking for support." 1/

"I'm entitled to do whatever the hell I want." That's the white privilege & sense of entitlement that raises huge red flags. The names used on her menu are embarassing & culturally offensive. I'm Mi'kmaw & would never appropriate Haida culture or mock a Cree ceremony for $
A restaurant near Ottawa is stirring up concerns over its menu and décor, which some say is a "mishmash" that is "making a mockery" of First Nations cultures from across North America. cbc.ca/news/indigenous/manit…

It’s hard to believe there could be four bodies, killed by perhaps a serial killer, as possible evidence in a landfill, and the authorities are blocking anyone going in to look for them. Is this a Native thing?
My heart is in my throat. What’s happening in Winnipeg at the Brady Landfill blockade is so much more than meets the eye. The prospect of people being forcibly removed by police with an injunction; the Native women’s bodies in the dumps; their daughters demanding justice & on the frontlines; the bureaucratic coldness. It’s a catalyst moment for the inertia of the MMIWG genocide.
