Just like in the old days, AIM members are gathering along Franklin Avenue just as they gathered for occupations of Alcatraz Island in San Francisco in 1969, the Bureau of Indian Affairs headquarters in 1972, and the Wounded Knee massacre site in 1973. ictnews.org/news/full-ci...

I’m feeling overwhelmed and frustrated by the state of things so a random predatory real estate developer got a rare response to their untimely spam message today.

The message about not ceding my spiritual and emotional sovereignty is what I needed to hear.

Four citizens of the Oglala Sioux Tribe have been held by ICE since Thursday. The unhoused men were picked up during an ICE raid and despite advocacy from their tribe, three have not been released. The place where the men are being held (the ICE facility in Minneapolis) is

New: Cop City RICO Cases Dismissed Years After 61 Activists Charged as Criminal Conspiracy Racketeering charges against dozens indicted as co-conspirators in the Stop Cop City movement were dismissed yesterday marking a legal victory for the movement unicornriot.ninja/2025/cop-cit...

There’s a new book out about pretendians, 'Who Gets to be an Indian?', and I interviewed author @dinagw.bsky.social. She says while she doesn’t want to be in the business of calling people out, people should expect to have to prove their claims of Native identity. www.hcn.org/articles/we-...

Pretendianism and the other side of the colonial coin, disenrollment, destroy collectivism and glorify individualism. They are just a couple more ways for settlers to grab land. “If you’re going to identify as an Indigenous person, then show us how you’re Indigenous, based on tribal protocols.”

I'm doing a thing with some Native folks next year and I dreamed about the food just now. Man, there is nothing like Native food. The flavors, the freshness, the love that goes into making the food, the ancestors watching over us, I cannot wait!

Lil snow caps on the monarda punctata stems this morning. We’ve seen dark eyed juncos regularly bending the stems and eating the seeds inside 🖤 #nativeplants #savethestems #leavetheleaves

Celebrity chefs told Californians that PFAS-coated pans were “safe,” and successfully lobbied Gavin Newsom to veto a bill phasing them out They didn’t mention they all sell PFAS-coated pans. New joint investigation with @mirandagreen.bsky.social and @atmosmag.bsky.social is out:

When this "AI" bubble pops, the men pretending they weren't pushing the hype, like "critics" whose position is "AGI is real but LLMs aren't the way," who were in eugenicist and "AI existential risk"🙄 circles, will get specials discussing what they saw coming, when its the women who told you so.

What are the best bookstores in Albuquerque and Santa Fe? Native owned businesses? Anyone have a favorite or two? #booksky #indigisky

I’ll be visiting Santa Fe and Albuquerque in a few weeks. I’m looking for Native galleries, great restaurants, and any other recommendations you want to share!

One of my favorite local planthoppers, Dictyonissus griphus. Such distinctive wing venation.

The seeds of River Oats are ready to be collected and distributed to spread Louisiana’s #nativeplants! This decorative grass produces flat seed heads that provide a great food source for birds and its planting helps with soil erosion along rivers 🌱 DM me if you’d like a free pack sent your way!

The delicate beauty of monarda punctata stems covered in ice and snow. I saw 2 dark-eyed juncos snacking on the frozen and bent to the ground goldenrod stems and seed heads later in the afternoon. #nativeplants

The findings ultimately pointed blame at the government’s failure to uphold its treaty obligations to Indigenous nations in the U.S. and its harmful policies that disconnected them from their land, culture and language — something Moorehead wrote about more than a century ago.

This kinda article reminds use we're living in a Gilded Age and it's our neighbors, friends, families, babies and even fetuses suffering so the billionaires can have more and more. Corruption from the local officeholders to the governor to the feds. Sometimes I think direct action is inevitable.

Was not expecting to see this when i opened up a 1978 issue of High Times

Tribal Alliance Against Frauds publishes results of their investigations of dishonest claims of Indigenous heritage. So many fake Cherokees out there, especially in academia. One would think academics, of all people, would know how to verify research and claims. tribalallianceagainstfrauds.org

So many pretendians claim to be Cherokee. It’s exhausting and enraging for those of us tsalagi enrolled in one of the 3 federally recognized tribes. Tribal Alliance Against Frauds is doing great work.

You know what, I'm just gonna re-up this post
