One of my former mentees is a tribal member and the most recent things we talked about over e-mail is that ICE is detaining Indigenous people but it goes vastly underreported.

I didn’t post much of a preamble when sharing this, but it’s hard to know what to say. Someone I know and admire lost her family in a tragic accident. These were incredible dogs, and she is an incredible owner.
