  1. Start 2023 out right, follow a #Native #Indigenous person on #Mastodon today, now!

    Even better follow 5 or 10 or 20.

    Or best choice, follow every #Native #Indigenous person you can find!

    Shout out hashtags:
    #Native #Indigenous #NDN #Freedmen #BIPOC #NativeMastodon #IndigenousMastodon #FreedmenMastodon

  2. A lot of non-Natives fear #LandBack, concerned Native gov'ts would treat them the same way Colonial gov'ts treat Natives.

    Truth be told though, #LandBack would be the best thing to ever happen to Natives and non-Natives.

    #LandBack is best for everyone, and especially the planet itself.

  3. How do you say your non-profit organization has all white leadership, mostly white management, and a high degree of white culture permeating the whole organization, without saying it directly?

    Say: Our mission is to the inner city...

  4. So there are what, over 11K Mastodon instances & less than 20 BIPOC-owned instances?!?

    Correct me if these numbers are wrong. This is totally unscientific, just a perception of North America.

    Update: It would be interesting to see estimates for non-North American instances & BIPOC-ownership.

    I guess there is no need for a #WhiteMastodon hashtag, the whole #Fediverse is almost all white dominated.

  5. What I hear:
    Ok, now all you Indians and Black folk, just go hide & assimilate yourselves among the white people in the fediverse. No sense in making yourselves targets. The whiter the fediverse becomes, the better. No single instance owner should have the power to limit whiteness.

    What I say:
    Drop dead, whiteness needs to go bye-bye. Power to ALL people, not just the colonizer class.

    Will Mastodon become just the newest chapter of colonizers & enslavers controlling & dominating Native/Indigenous/BIPOC people?

    I believe it will NOT, but if racists & trolls isolate #BIPOC instances, it won't be the first time for Native/Indigenous/BIPOC people or the last, likely.

    I know on Mvskoke.social & a network of other Native/Indigenous/BIPOC instances, we are safe & will prosper.

    Coincidentally at the same time my son @jeremiah said he was thinking of starting a hip-hop instance Rap.social.

    I stopped harboring thoughts & Mvskoke.social became a reality as an all Native/Indigenous instance.

    Mvskoke.social will probably always be a small special interest instance. The important thing is as Native/Indigenous people, we are in control of our own digital lands.

    When Musk bought Twitter, I was troubled with its direction & morally concerned that my usage implied support of a pro-Racist, pro-Nazi business.

    I began to harbor thoughts of hosting my own instance. When I heard about Indg.club a Native-owned & populated instance, I jumped & immediately signed up.

  9. I only know of 4 Native/Indigenous/BIPOC owned Mastodon server/instances.

    Mvskoke.social
    Rap.social
    Indg.club
    Elekk.xyz

    There must be more, right?
    There must be Black-owned instances out there, right?!?!?

    Anyone know of any?

    Mastodon is very white, this needs to change.

  10. What you boost, who you follow & what they boost, & the general type of users & what they boost on the instance you are on determine everything.

    In my opinion, this makes the case for #BIPOC clustering on their own instances.

    Boosting makes your world, & also brings more like-minded followers with regularity, & in greater amounts than other social media.

  11. Blood quantum is suicidal, frankly.

    Mvskoke Nation has a lineal descent to a relative on the Dawes Rolls requirement, which seems sensible to me. Other Nations that use blood quantum, I don't know... maybe they need to take a math class?

    We know BQ is colonizer designed with a very specific desired result. It just seems foolish for a Native Nation to make sure paper genocide finishes the job...
