Notice: I am NOT suggesting non-Indigenous, non-BIPOC people post with most of these hashtags. Follow, ally, educate yourself, etc. but don’t appropriate is always good advice for allies.

Next time someone asks me what Settler Memory means I'll just show them this photo:
"Vote"... "End Racism"...."CHIEFS!"
If I ever do an updated edition, this photo will have to go in Chapter 4.
If you're watching the subpar bowl today instead of boycotting it, you can probably understand how it looks like you're giving racism a pass.
And as you probably know, giving racism a pass is... racism.
Don't be racist. Stand with us against Native mascots.

In 2005, the American Psychological Association called for the immediate retirement of all American Indian mascots. (It is now 2023.)
Why are #KansasCity and the #NFL stuck in a primitive, stone age existence?

New research (in 2016) shows how Native American mascots reinforce stereotypes (it is now 2023)
"Those who’d viewed the Native American mascot were more likely to associate warlike qualities with Native Americans... Implicit bias can influence decisions ranging from hiring practices to jury preferences and criminal sentencing."

Native American mascots "are psychologically detrimental to Native American students. Second, for non-Native persons, they are associated with negative stereotypes of Native Americans. Third, these mascots undermine intergroup relations by increasing negative stereotyping of Native Americans. Lastly, supporters of these mascots are more apt to believe prejudicial ideas."

Last year, I forget the sport event, I was told my messaging was too harsh to be effective. I'm like so if a truth message isn't soft and cuddly enough for you, you're gonna use that as an excuse to be racist?
I reject 100% the idea that message delivery holds responsibility for what white people decide to do with receipt of the knowledge.

My Super Bowl posts are very unpopular on my Facebook profile, with only Native acknowledgement, and dead silence from white people. I'm gonna guess I will hear very little about football the next couple days. White people will watch it, but secretly is my guess.

"You can’t pretend to be an ally while tolerating a system that disproportionately kills those you purport to be an ally to." -Tina Ngata
What's this have to do with the Super Bowl? It's a proven medical and scientific fact that sports mascotry contributes all kinds of mental health issues especially in Native youth, including suicide. Educate yourself if you don't believe me.

A lot of supposedly #AntiRacist Progressives wouldn't be caught dead watching on TV or at a live event with Blackface, afro-wigs and spears have zero problems watching on TV or at a live event with Redface, headresses and tomahawks... #JustSayin

Franchises like the Kansas City football team dehumanize Native peoples while encouraging racist behavior in stadiums, schools and on social media. Kansas City and the NFL continue to allow—and reap major profits from—the blatant racism of the team’s very name, logo and behavior like “the tomahawk chop.”

Remember when you watch the Super Bowl this year, you are actively supporting racism.
Once Again, Racism Will Be On Display at the Super Bowl .
Sign the petition. Tell the Kansas City Chiefs to change their name and imagery.
Are the Kansas City Chiefs Offensive? YES. Are they harmful? Also, YES.

I am excited to see the efforts behind https://www.endasfmascotry.com/ and perhaps it can spark momentum for even more settler allyship. #NotYourMascot #Apache
Let me share some of the things I have learned about being a better settler ally in support of reconciliation and #LandBack:
