Hi, I'm Sequoia (9 yo, they/them) and I want to Wash Out Washington off our flag and change the State name! We deserve better. Send me your flag ideas! Tell me why you think he should go! #WashOutWashington bigrockbigriver.com/wash-out-wa
The kids are alright π
I'm 100% here for the youth who are leading the way.
Did y'all see the new national parks pass?
You will not convince me these Nazis are not doing occult magic to try and raise the Spirit of George Washington this year, on the 250th Anniversary of our nation.
They engage in Spiritual Warfare.
Wake. Up. Already.

This is a kids drawing of him setting a town on fire π
Washington AKA Colonizer was called 'The Town Destroyer' because he destroyed Native towns. Why? Because he was a COLONIZER!!!!! πππ

I'm happy to hear that. There are a lot of tribes in Washington State. It would be an honor & a blessing to incorporate some of our culture into the beautiful design of our state flag.
I stand with you in this journey of positive change. Thank you for sharing your progress.
Sapling putting letters in a mailbox.
I just mailed my letters to my State Senators and House Representatives asking to choose a better name and symbol for us all!
Help out by writing to yours!

It would be special to highlight those!
My mom used colors from some of those on a flag design!
Thank you! #WashOutWashington
Huckleberries.
Imagery: Cedar trees, salmon, Sasquatch, cedar canoes, mountains, Pacific Ocean, orcas, Puget Sound. Rivers. Long House.
I know we can't include all of those images on the flag, but, those are extremely important to our Coast Salish People of Washington State.
Maybe if we hadn't lied about who Washington was we would have ended prison labor!

I learned that George Washington was so lazy he couldn't even shoot a hole in his own hat to make it look like he had a close call.
He made his slave valet do it for him!!

He was a liar! It's time to #WashOutWashington π§½π§Όπ«§ because we deserve better!

When designing my flag, I thought of:
> the value of uphill battles, just to do it all again because that is how life works
> colors of fauna, flora, and Earth of the State
> how we all can come to fit together not just in spite of our unique shape, but because of it
And much more! Dig deep!
Mom chiming in here to remind everyone that part of the divide in our State is from East to West. I would love if we could all think of the other side as we consider imagery and symbolism.
We can come up with something truly great to #WashOutWashington π§½π§Όβ¨ if we put our minds to it.

Your story and activism are so powerful! Thank you for showing us what leadership looks like, Sequoia and @washoutwashington.bsky.social!
In 1853, Congress created the Washington Territory.
135 years later, a group of young activists formed @washoutwashington.bsky.social, questioning why the state they live in is named after an enslaver who wore dentures made from enslaved peopleβs teeth.
