We ask you today to honor Indigenous people and the Lands we hold sacred. We ask you to help us amplify our voices over the white noise of Settler Colonial manipulation programming. We ask that in your amplification you dig deeper and become familiar with Indigenous 2Spirit, Trans, Queer, Gender Nonconforming, Non-Binary, and Feminist/Matriarchal voices FIRST AND FOREMOST. We ask that in your prioritization of these communities you understand this is a direct request to dismantle heteropatriachal and hetero cis gendered supremacist complacency. We ask that you respect Indigenous uprising, fight for #IndigenousSovereignty and Land Stewardship reclamation, Afro-Indigenous Solidarity, Black Liberation, and also continue amplify Black voices and #BlackLivesMatter every hour or every day!
