While many actions are being taken to successfully stop DHS violence, this is one of the most notable. Choctaw Nation beats Washington, buys Oklahoma warehouse out from under them:

A big W in my mind. And I figure some of you haven’t heard about this yet.

From February 2024:
#TwoSpirit and #Indigiqueer communities mourn #nonbinary teen's death in Oklahoma
'Something that affects one of us affects all of us,' says Jade Lacosse
Edzi'u Loverin · CBC News ·
"Members of the two-spirit, Indigiqueer, and Indigenous #transgender communities are mourning the death of a non-binary 16-year-old teen in Oklahoma earlier this month.
"#NexBenedict died the day after a violent confrontation in a high school bathroom in Owasso, Okla., near Tulsa. Owasso police said in a statement preliminary autopsy results indicate the teen did not die as a result of injuries sustained in the fight.
"Benedict's mother is enrolled with the #ChoctawNation of Oklahoma and the school where the incident took place is located within the #CherokeeNation reservation. Benedict's family said Benedict experienced #bullying from their classmates due to their gender identity.
"The story has sparked cross-border reaction from #2SLGBTQ+ community members, reflecting on their own experiences as well as the current climate for #IndigenousYouth.
"'Many of us are in mourning,' said Jade Lacosse, an Anishinaabe and adopted Tlingit two-spirit trans woman in Whitehorse.
"'This was a young child that very few of us were directly connected to but they're still a relative, they are still a two-spirit relative in the way that our community sees things. Something that affects one of us affects all of us.'
"Lacosse said the statement from police appears to be about placing blame rather than taking responsibility for discrimination.
"'A young two-spirit child, one of our relations, died … and it's a direct result of #transphobia," Lacosse said.
"'The way that they died doesn't change that.'"

On 23 March 1847, the Choctaws Nation took up a donation, raising approximately $170 ($5,000 in today's money), and sent it to the town of Midleton, County Cork for famine relief.
The donation came shortly after the Choctaw Nation had embarked on the Trail of Tears and the selfless nature of the gesture has created an everlasting bond between Irish and Native American people. 1/2

I was reminded of this today, and thought I would share. There is a relationship between #Ireland and #ChoctawNation that goes back to the 19th century. Two different cultures, each recognizing the other experiencing hardship and reaching out to help out of #empathy and #respect. https://www.choctawnation.com/biskinik/born-through-a-donation-175-years-ago-the-choctaw-irish-bond-remains-strong-today/#:~:text=Choctaw%2DIrish%20Bond,-In%20March%20of&text=The%20Choctaws%20pooled%20together%20%24170,around%20%245%2C000%20in%20today's%20economy.
