It’s how the myth of white male supremacy sustains itself, through the celebration of harm as history, and the erasure of those who suffer under it as collateral damage.
Until we dismantle that myth and stop mistaking peace prizes for PR campaigns then this cycle of violence disguised as virtue will continue.

Added the above quote to the decolonization doc... the whole essay is awesome:
"As Indigenous anti-futurists, we are the consequence of the history of the colonizer’s future. We are the consequence of their war against Mother Earth. We will not allow the specter of the colonizer, the ghosts of the past to haunt the ruins of this world. We are the actualization of our prophecies.
This is the re-emergence of the world of cycles.
This is our ceremony.
Between silent skies. The world breathes again and the fever subsides. The land is quiet. Waiting for us to listen.When there are less distractions, we go to the place where our ancestors emerged.
And their/our voice.
There is a song older than worlds here, it heals deeper then the colonizer’s blade could ever cut.
And there, our voice. We were always healers. This is the first medicine.
Colonialism is a plague, capitalism is pandemic."
