The word "unhinged" is used.

Indigenous issues took center stage Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, CH. NCAI President Fawn Sharp told world leaders that Indigenous knowledge and lands are key elements in a global climate change strategy.

“The very place where my ancestors signed our treaty is now underwater, and we are not alone,” she said. “Indigenous peoples all across the planet are on the front lines.” https://ictnews.org/news/indigenous-people-on-the-front-lines-of-climate-solutions

And as long as I'm sharing information and stories by and for those living in #IndianCountry, lemme point y'all at @dragswolf and this essay which absolutely destroyed me emotionally because I can relate to it as a Filipina who doesn't know how to speak Tagalog and has settled in Canada. The first seven paragraphs alone about how East Texan kindergartners are learning about Native Americans is also relevant to my research project!

I would love to see more things like this happening in school districts across the United States because it would help demonstrate to all students that Native Americans are not a "disappearing people" but are part of a thriving community whose children are attending the same schools as their non-Indigenous peers.

Dam removal: yay! #ICWA: yikes! There's been a lot going on in #IndianCountry in 2022 (AKA the year the ‘sq–’ slur died).

One example: In March, there was an unprecedented meeting between Congress and tribal leaders to discuss co-management of federal lands. By June, co-management of Bears Ears was announced.

Also the Yurok Tribe brought Condors back to Northern #California. Nbd.

Any of you read this remarkable book, Killers of the Flower Moon? If not, I highly recommend it. #osage #nativeamerican #indiancountry #socialjustice

"We forfeited our country. Our lands have fallen into the hands of the aggressor. We have allowed the white man to keep us on our knees. What has happened cannot be changed, but today we must work towards a more humane America, a more Indian America, where men and nature once again are important; where the Indian values of honor, truth, and brotherhood prevail." - Wamsutta James, Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head, 1970

What I had hoped Pres. #Obama would do (and is one of my biggest disappointments that he didn't), I hope Pres. #Biden does during his administration. #FreeLeonardPeltier #ClemencyForLeonardPeltier #LeonardPeltier #IndianCountry #Democrats

Cherokee Nation leaders push for long ago promise to be fulfilled: representation in US Congress https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/16/politics/cherokee-nation-delegate-house-committee-hearing-cec/index.html #firstnationsrights #firstnations #indiancountry #cherokee #treaty #congress

"A quarter of land just outside of present-day reservation boundaries is managed by one of six federal agencies, largely made up of the Bureau of Land Management and the Forest Service.

Identifying where these parcels are, especially in relation to current or former reservation land, is a powerful first step for tribes and government agencies to begin to develop strategies for landback."
