I recently saw some folks confuse the #Dine peoples (Navajo; Southwestern US area) with the #Dene peoples in Western sub-Arctic Canada. I can understand the confusion if you just look at spelling or if you've heard them both pronounced the same way.
They're vastly different first peoples.
Learn more about both of these First Nations.

If this child was strong enough to survive colonization, land theft and reservation internment — then white kids should be strong enough to learn about it in school. #nativeamerican #NativeNations

@decolonialatlas I know one of the co-authors of #ICWA and have a friend in their 30s who was still illegally removed from her tribe after its enactment. I had to take an entire course on it in law school. There are a lot of racist judges who ignore it. #nativeamericans #tribalsovereignty #NativeNations #Indigenous
