When we remain
When we remain
We will not be like the beautiful bones of a forgotten city. 🌆💀

When we remain
We will be the flowers and the trees and the vines that overcome the forgotten city.🌻🌳🌱

We have woven ourselves into the cloth of the earth.
We have mixed our breath into the expanding sky.🌈☁️

When we remain
We will not be like the beautiful bones of a forgotten city. 🌆💀

On May 23rd, 1838, the forced removal of the Cherokee, Muscogee (Creek) Nation, Seminole, Chickasaw, Choctaw and other Native American nations officially began - a land theft, massacre, and attempted genocide known as the Trail of Tears. Approximately 60,000 people were displaced of whom up to 6,000 died on the Trail.
