Happy #olympicGames everyone. It's 2026 and we're still kicking First Nations people off their land. History repeating to build a stadium we don't need. For a two-week event in 2032.
Fuck the Olympic Games, fuck Queensland Police, fuck the Queensland Government, fuck BCC and fuck GIICA.

#Reciprocity, #Respect, #Relationality: Three Rs to Understand #IndigenousPerspectives on Development in the #Green conomy
By Edson Krenak, May 27, 2026
"Reciprocity is more than a practice; it is our way of life, the way of life. Instead of focusing solely on economic growth, without limit, we must pay attention to check whether all beings are enjoying life in a healthy place. Without reciprocity, the green economy will reproduce the same extractive logic it claims to overcome, and eventually fail our common home, Earth."

‘The cavalry’s coming!’: Indigenous activism from 1492 to Standing Rock
Famed Indigenous activists like Leonard Peltier and Madonna Thunder Hawk and younger activists shared their thoughts with ICT about the evolution of Indigenous activism from the rise of the American Indian Movement in the 1960s to Standing Rock and beyond.
by Kevin Abourezk, May 11, 2026
#CannonballND – "The field is serene. The blades of brown grass, not yet awakened by spring rains, sway gently. In the distance, the #MissouriRiver cuts a blue streak across the unbroken plains. The silence is punctuated only by the sound of passing cars and the low hum of rushing water in nearby #CannonballRiver.
"But if you listen carefully, you can hear defiant voices shouting and then screaming.
"Ten years ago, this land exploded.
"For nearly a year, from April 2016 to February 2017, thousands of people stood strong against #MilitarizedPolice, #FederalTroops and #PrivateSecurityForces [#Blackwater] hired to protect the 1,176-mile #DakotaAccessPipeline. They gathered to resist a private corporation’s efforts to build a pipeline less than a mile from the #StandingRockSioux Reservation near the #NorthDakota-#SouthDakota border.
"In the end, they were forced to evacuate their camps as authorities quieted, but never fully extinguished, the uprising. Some would say the fire that ignited at #StandingRock was lit decades earlier by #NativeActivists who fought oppression and violence in the 1960s and 1970s.
"While Native people have resisted #colonization and its impacts since 1492, the rise of the American Indian Movement in the 1960s marked a turning point in the efforts of Native people to join together and speak in one voice. That torch of resistance was carried all the way from places like #AlcatrazIsland and #WoundedKnee to a field near the Missouri River in 2016.
"The #NoDAPL movement reached its height on Nov. 20, 2016, when hundreds of water protectors gathered on a bridge to clear two burned-out trucks that impeded a public roadway that provided access to the pipeline drill site and to the camp. The confrontation was the most violent clash between water protectors and authorities during the protest and led to nearly 200 people being injured, some seriously."

"Construction crews working on the wall on the #USMexico border in #Arizona significantly damaged a 1,000-year-old #geoglyph located in #CabezaPrieta #NationalWildlifeRefuge. It’s one of a number of places tribes on both sides of the border say are damaged or are threatened by the fast-tracked construction process. #Tribal leaders say such desecration is happening at a record pace after the #Trump administration sidelined #cultural and #environmental barriers to construction.

Lawsuit challenges cancellation of federal grants for #Tribal agricultural programs
Tribal groups join lawsuit seeking restoration of $127 million in canceled farm grants
In March, the USDA canceled 49 grants, including at least three supporting Montana projects designed to support ‘underserved’ farmers and ranchers.
Wednesday, May 27, 2026
By Nora Mabie, Montana Free Press"Twenty-four organizations, including one that serves tribes in Montana and the surrounding region, on Tuesday joined a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Agriculture, alleging that grants supporting farmers and ranchers were unlawfully terminated.
"In March, the USDA canceled 49 of 50 Increasing Land, Capital and Market Access Program grants designed to support 'underserved' farmers and ranchers.
"At least three projects in Montana were affected: #PiikaniLodgeHealthInstitute, headquartered on the #Blackfeet Reservation, lost a nearly $9 million grant to improve operations for farmers and ranchers in the region. The #ChippewaCree Tribe in north-central Montana lost a nearly $6 million award to purchase land and train young farmers and ranchers how to manage it. And #SouthDakota-based #FourBandsCommunityFund lost an $8.5 million grant to train and financially support at least 25 #LowIncome agricultural producers in #Montana, #NorthDakota, South Dakota and Wyoming. At the time, Montana-based awardees described the terminations as 'devastating.' "

117 million people forcibly displaced. The countries hosting most of them are not in the West. Jordan since 1948. Pakistan for four decades. Lebanon more refugees per capita than anywhere.
The Global South did not create this crisis. It is managing it while the West lectures about border security.
