Join the registry: my.nmdp.org/s/join?langu...

I’d be happy to help acquire a test for you, answer any questions, assist in any way. Thank you!

The test is a simple cheek swab by mail and joining the registry as a Filipino person could help others, even if you are not an exact match for my aunt. Feel free to DM me if interested in getting tested, or if you have other Filipino people or groups you might know to reach out to bit.ly/4aiUIKQ

I’m looking for 100% Filipino people who are willing to submit a cheek swab test in hopes for a genetic match to my aunt, who is battling blood cancer. The registry for stem cells doesn’t have many Filipino people in it, and joining it could help many. Please share/reach out to me! bit.ly/4aiUIKQ

Two cabins were torched over the weekend at the Mi’kmaw Land Protectors Hunter’s mountain camp. One burnt to the ground while the other sustained major damage. According to the land protectors, this was an alleged hate crime.

Something is just not right about this. I mean, of all the organizing work I've done with organizations around the world....never heard of Turtle Island Liberation Front. I'm also here in Los Angeles and never came in contact with these folks. www.bbc.com/news/article...

While all the able-bodied insist that the "Real World" (TM) is offline, that means the only people left here with be fundraisers, autoposted thinkpieces and disabled people socialising because it's the only place we have left. C'est la vie.

There is nothing more culturally appropriative that straight-up theft and exploitation. Fuck this company.

How can they claim this is "cultural appreciation NOT cultural appropriation????" It's fucking literally appropriating designs and styles, nothing "inspired" about this, and paying people a sub-minimum wage (no evidence they're paying Indigenous ppl either) to hand bead them. This is exploitative.

Hand-beaded moccs for $150 and less? That's slave wages. "We didn't want to create just another moccasin. We wanted to build a brand that honors the time, skill, and cultural heritage behind this beautiful, wearable art. Our goal isn't to be the biggest; it's to be the most authentic." GAG

From their fucking website:

This is the website btw, it's not mocassinS Canada, it's moccasin singular canada. moccasincanada.com
