Today is #indigenouspeoplesday. Listen to the searing words of Rebecca Stockpole and take it upon yourself to learn how you can support and show up for indigenous communities. As she says, “we haven’t even recovered yet” from the constant barrage of atrocities against Native people - from straight-up genocide to the horrific child abuse and murder by the Catholic Church and other groups that ran residential schools, to the ongoing murders, rapes and trafficking of indigenous women, girls and two-spirits, and more. It is our obligation as colonizers of their land, no matter how our ancestors or we ourselves arrived in what we call the Americas to inform ourselves and follow their leadership.
