"Pedestrians are more than five times more likely to die on roads in the NT than in other states and territories, and 87 per cent of pedestrians killed in the NT since 2012 were Indigenous. The NT government says a new road safety strategy will tackle the deaths of Indigenous pedestrian."

A jurisdictional maze and lack of resources contribute to an estimated 4,200 Indigenous cases remaining unsolved. These gaps have led some Native American police to do the work of finding these people themselves.

Facing the axe: new ‘forest’ definition makes large tracts vulnerable

Amendments to the Forest Conservation Act, 2006, may pose threat to Odisha’s densely treed Niyamgiri hill range that is fiercely protected by the Dongria Kondh tribe, say experts.

We also show that #IndigenousPeople s’ lands and #ProtectedAreas showed lower proportion of deforestation frontier than other areas, and thus remain important areas to support in protecting these ecosystems

By understanding #deforestationpatterns and the interaction with protected areas and #IPLs, we can better understand how to tailor conservation strategies and support these unique #SocioEcologicalSystems.

#Canada’s Indigenous women forcibly sterilized decades after other rich countries stopped | AP News

>A Senate report last year concluded “this horrific practice is not confined to the past, but clearly is continuing today.” In May, a doctor was penalized for forcibly sterilizing an #Indigenous woman in 2019.

@breadandcircuses et al.
Who are some voices of #firstPeople/ #indigenouspeople and #nextgeneration folks who speak about alternatives and new paradigms?

A disgusting act of blatant racism exploiting the missing and murdered indigenous women happened in Muscatine on Tuesday. I won't reshare the picture but it depicted a violent act against the indigenous peoples during a family friendly event. @cityofmuscatine should have never let this continue but they did, and all while white people cheered this disgusting act. I went to the city council meeting tonight along with many, to stand up. I listened to the @greatplainsactionsociety share how this action was traumatic to indigenous people. I listened to indigenous people share painful stories of missing and murdered indigenous women and how this deeply affected them. I listened to how people are leaving Muscatine and the state of Iowa because of blatant racism. And after people were done, I listened and did not hear ANY apology from the mayor of Muscatine needs to do better. Iowa needs to do better. This country needs to do better. #indigenouspeople #muscatine #iowa #racism #indigenous #standup

Just remember that while Canada and Canadians celebrate #CanadaDay there thousands of indigenous families still irreparably broken.

Canada has begun to confront the negative impacts of colonization and #settler culture on the #indigenouspeople of #turtleisland The recovery and recognition of #indigenous place names is an important step on the journey to #reconciliation and #Landback . It needs to be much more than an exercise in symbolism.

I created a lot of collage canoe pieces for the Indigenous Diabetes Health Circle. I love the simplicity of this one. Yet, it has complex textures.

Another canoe piece created for the Indigenous Diabetes Health Circle. This one features a sacred buffalo and a birch wood traditional Native American boat. Such an honor to work for them!

70% of the landmass in Australia is semi-arid or arid land. Deserts are often perceived as barren and empty spaces, a landscape hostile to life.
“Rewilding as a concept is imbued with western colonial frontier ideas of wilderness and wildness. While it has suffered the impacts of colonisation and climate change, it remains less altered than other landscapes, and more alive than most imagine.”

Rainforest inhabited by hundreds of uncontacted Hongana Manyawa people in Indonesia has been targeted for highly destructive mining, which will devastate the forest – and the people.

Amazonian childcare

A really interesting piece by an anthropologist and feminist whose partner is an indigenous Ecuadoran who went to live with their child in her partner's village. The resulting clash of child-rearing concepts may illustrate the view that it "takes a village to raise" a socially engaged child.

"Following current orthodoxy, Runa childrearing – with its casual breastfeeding, abrupt weaning, no extensive parent-child play, no lengthy adult-child talk – would be described as ‘lacking’ in so many respects. And yet, my Runa friends and family thought my own childcare practices were conspicuously inadequate to raise a child in the context of their community life. Their observations, their puzzlement and their quiet defiance of my own childcare practices remind us that, whenever we talk about childrearing, we are not talking about achieving some objective child development based on irrefutable scientific evidence, but rather about a moral project: a moral project about what kind of people we would like our children to become, what society we would like to live in, and what kind of economy we would like to serve. As my Runa friends and family have subtly but relentlessly demonstrated, there is more than one way to flourish as humans in this world."

The discovery & rescue of 4 Indigenous children, 40 days after the aircraft they were travelling in crashed in the remote #Colombian #rainforest, was hailed miracle

At least, not a #miracle in the conventional sense of the word

The #survival of these children can be attributed to the profound knowledge of the intricate forest and the adaptive skills passed down through generations by Indigenous people

#Activists & #advocates gathered in downtown #Halifax Tuesday afternoon to call for an overhaul of the #JusticeSystem to improve its treatment of #IndigenousPeople & to #honour the #memories of #Indigenous people who #died in provincial custody.
The crowd marched from the Peace & Friendship Park to the #HalifaxCentralLibrary holding signs that read "Real Justice Doesn't Kill People" & "Say Their Names."

@zeborah This reminds me of seeing the mortars ground into rock by the indigenous people of California as they ground acorns and other seeds into flour. It must have been hard work.

I saw these at the Idyllwild Nature Centre in the San Jacinto mountains of California. They're called chaw’se by the Miwok people of northern California. I'm not sure what southern Californian people called them.
