The other threads either move too fast, aren't really penitent, or just loving dumb. There should be a thread to talk about Indigenous people's struggles in the world. Currently the US Navy is poisoning the people of Hawaii. https://twitter.com/Kiai_Report/status/1565080073526558727?cxt=HHwWjoC-uZyCpLgrAAAA

TrueAnon covered some mormon guy who pretended to be the descendant of an Seminole tribe chief who fought against the US. All this was so that he could have a church that sold ayahuasca. It's so mindblowing, lmfao.

That being linked to the Utah DA election where the incumbent had to hold a press conference denying he cannibalized children is one of my faves.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Child_Welfare_Act In the US they had to make a law because Indian kids were being put into the adoption/foster care system at an extremely higher rate. Of course, the supreme court overruled a lot of what this law was attempting to protect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adoptive_Couple_v._Baby_Girl https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/adoptive-couple-v-baby-girl/id1497785843?i=1000536117776

Thomas King has a great lecture of all the ways Canada and the US have tried to define “Indian”, and one of the main US laws has to do with certifying what tchatchkas are allowed to be sold as “authentically Indian.” The name of the lecture is What Is It About Us You Don’t Like? It’s from his Massey lectures.

I remember that happening and this paragraph of the article is very on point:quote:An RCMP press release issued soon after the incident focused on the driver’s apparent impatience and suggested that the incident was not related to the cause of the march. But witnesses described the man using racial slurs and telling participants to “get over” residential schools prior to accelerating his truck. One witness said the driver threatened to run her over.

The inevitable is already happening. The indigenous nations that were being "used" for years and years by the environmentalist movement have leveraged the environmentalist movement as useful idiots and leveraged the situation to further their land title claims to take control of the resource exploitation in question. Now the government has recognized that the First Nations are their allies so long as they're the ones able to exploit the resources on their lands and so are supporting the First Nations in telling environmentalists to gently caress off. lol quote:Pacheedaht First Nation asks old-growth protesters to leave its territory

AnimeIsTrash posted:Is there a Canadian equivalent to the AIM? Probably the closest we come these days is Idle No More: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idle_No_More There are some institutional associations to represent First Nations people in Canada, like the Assembly of First Nations, but my impression of them has been that by this point they're too integrated into conventional power structures to be at all radical.
