Hello! I’m the reporter who has been tracking citizens detained by immigration agents. And last night, I noticed something: A lot of them were at the State of the Union, including a number of whom I’ve written about.
Their stories should be known:
Indigenous athletes are at the winter Olympics! 3 Métis athletes from Canada are competing in luge, hockey, & bobsleigh, and 2 Inuk athletes from Greenland (representing Denmark) in the biathlon. Read about them here!
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵
I just watched this twice. It’s very impactful and well done. Nothing will ever be done to rectify this colonialism and climate emergency without Democratic leadership. I feel the same sadness and shame as I do seeing the DHS and ICE behavior towards people. #akleg
ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.
If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

'Inuit land belongs in Inuit hands'

YES. Aakaluk said it perfectly 🙌🏽
Yes, our languages are quite similar - my grandparents could easily converse with our 🇬🇱 relatives. Qs Greenland has a lovely video on it: youtube.com/shorts/jj17q...
An Inuit message of solidarity and support for our 🇬🇱 relatives from Inuit of Alaska and Canada ❤️

Greenland has announced it will annex the United States, citing humanitarian concerns, chronic leadership instability, and an urgent need to protect valuable land from reckless mismanagement. Officials assured Americans they'll soon enjoy free healthcare, quieter politics, and less gold plating.

Centering Western perspectives of "true" history by calling our Indigenous histories "prehistory" & insinuating we are only modern due to colonization are two of many ways we are gaslit into assimilation and conformity.

Two lawsuits allege that Jay McGraw, son of Dr. Phil, is the “principal beneficiary” of tribal lender Minto Money.
CreditServe, a company that McGraw plays a key role in, controls the operation while “the Tribe is merely a front,” the suits said.

Colonization IS white history.
How Indigenous people have survived it is ours.
I am honored to give 2 upcoming presentations in Nuuk, Greenland:
1st - centered on Inuit identity/knowledge as our strength,
2nd - thesis research on the era of missionization + formation of Alaska's education system and its ongoing impacts to Native students and peoples 🙏🏽

Wow! Need all of these ❤️
