  8. #Trump's Plan to Seize #Greenland Would "Militarize the Arctic," Trample #IndigenousRights

    #DemocracyNow, January 7, 2026

    "Following the U.S. attack on Venezuela, the Trump administration has renewed its campaign to take over Greenland, which has been controlled by Denmark for more than 300 years. The White House says it’s considering 'a range of options,' including the use of military force. Danish Prime Minister #MetteFrederiksen has warned that if the U.S. were to attack Greenland, it would spell the end of #NATO.

    " 'Greenland is not up for sale,' says #AajuPeter, a Greenlandic #Inuit activist and attorney, who says #IndigenousGreenlanders want their independence from both the U.S. and Denmark.

    "We also speak with analyst Pavel Devyatkin, who says the U.S. is 'acting like a #RogueState' and enacting a policy of 'pure imperialism.' "

  9. #Canada: #SupremeCourt "Denied!" #MohawkMothers

    Posted on January 17, 2025 by Kan1enkehaka

    "SUGGESTION: THE #INDIGENOUS COULD HOLD THEIR OWN INVESTIGATION AND TRIAL ON THE #GENOCIDE THAT WAS COMMITTED ON TURTLE ISLAND.

    "SUPREME COURT OF CANADA, SCC, DENIES THE APPLICATION OF THE
    #KAHNISTENSERA MOHAWK MOTHERS TO DISCUSS THE MISSING AND DISAPPEARED INDIGENOUS CHILDREN.
    SCC DECISION REAFFIRMS THAT THEY ARE INTRUDERS AND WE ARE THE ORIGINAL NATURAL PEOPLE OF TURTLE ISLAND, ONOWAREKEH.

    "THE MOHAWK MOTHERS ARE NOT SURPRISED. IT COMES FROM THE SAME
    COLONIAL SYSTEM THAT ENABLED OUR GENOCIDE. THE CIVIL COURT CANNOT PROTECT INDIGENOUS RIGHTS."

  10. This is probably why #JoeBiden WILL NOT pardon #LeonardPeltier. Instead he awards #HillaryClinton !!!👿

    Hillary Clinton Awarded #MedalOfFreedom. Clinton Targeted #Mohawks and #Mapuche, Presidents #EvoMorales and #HugoChavez, with U.S. #Espionage.

    By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, January 6, 2025

    WASHINGTON -- "President #Biden awarded Hillary Clinton with the Medal of Freedom on Saturday.

    "Clinton, while serving as Secretary of State during the Obama administration, targeted Mohawks, Mapuche, and world leaders with U.S. espionage.

    "The U.S. Embassies in Montreal and Toronto targeted Mohawks with surveillance at the border and in their communities in Canada. The U.S. used illegal wiretaps to track Mohawks and documented the actions of #AkwesasneMohawks at the border of New York and Canada.

    "The U.S. surveillance is revealed in the U.S. State Department cables, exposed by #Wikileaks, during the time Clinton served as Secretary of State from 2009 to 2013. Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez was under heavy surveillance, as revealed in the cables.

    "It was during this time of Clinton's espionage that delegations of the #AmericanIndianMovement, Mohawks, and #Indigenous #HumanRightsActivists were in #Venezuela in 2011. The solidarity and support resulted in free heating oil from Venezuela for #NativeAmericans in need.

    "In this deadly web of the United States government's secrecy, the United States was part of a coalition to promote mining and fight against #IndigenousRights in Peru. A core group of diplomats -- from U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, Switzerland and South Africa -- formed an alliance with mining companies to promote and protect mining interests globally, the cables reveal.

    "The U.S. led the coalition and fought the rights of #IndigenousPeoples near the border of #Peru and #Ecuador. Indigenous Peoples were being killed defending their land from #CopperMining in bloody battles with #MiningCompanies and the military.

    "The U.S. State Department cables reveal that Clinton told U.S. Ambassadors to collect DNA and iris scans on leaders in #Africa and #Paraguay.

    "Biden, however, claimed during the award ceremony at the White House on Saturday that Clinton carried out a 'sacred effort.'"

  11. Great photo floating around* showing just how large the demonstration was outside the New Zealand Parliament over white people maliciously attempting to reinterpret an almost 200-year-old treaty in their own favour and removing even more rights from Maori.

    Oh, I found an article from Al Jazeera estimating 42,000 people in attendance.

    Oh there we go. Fucking Libertarians being racist as usual.


    An estimated 42,000 people demonstrated on Tuesday, calling for lawmakers to reject the Treaty Principles Bill, which was introduced earlier this month by the libertarian ACT New Zealand party.

  12. Did #AvocadoCartels Kill the Butterfly King?

    #HomeroGómezGonzález put himself between a threatened species and #Mexico’s #avocado and #timber industries. Then he disappeared.

    by Matthew Bremner
    July 23, 2021

    "Gómez’s fight to preserve the forests had been tough, he’d told the international press. He said his work had been endangered by criminals, including illegal loggers and the cartel-infiltrated avocado trade. 'Gómez was probably hurting the interests of people illegally logging in the area,' Mayte Cardona, a spokeswoman for the State #HumanRights Commission of #Michoacán, told journalists shortly after his disappearance."

  13. Mexico: defender of monarch butterflies found dead two weeks after he vanished

    - Homero Gómez González was found floating in a well
    - Activists say death could be over illegal logging disputes

    by David Agren
    Thu 30 Jan 2020

    A #Mexican #environmental #activist who fought to protect the wintering grounds of the monarch #butterfly has been found dead in the western state of Michoacán, two weeks after he disappeared.

    #HomeroGómezGonzález, a former logger who managed #ElRosarioButterflyReserve, vanished on 13 January. His body was found floating in a well on Wednesday, reportedly showing signs of torture.

    “The motive for his murder remains unknown, but some activists speculated that it could have been related to disputes over illegal #logging.

    “Last week, authorities called in 53 police officers from the surrounding municipalities for questioning.

    “Gómez González’s death comes as the murder rate continues to surge in a country where environmental defenders, human rights workers and community activists are routinely targeted for their work.

    “President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has promised to halt attacks on environmental defenders, but the killings continue.

    “‘This is a very regrettable act, very painful,' López Obrador said at his morning press conference on Thursday. 'It’s part of what makes us apply ourselves more to guarantee peace and tranquility in the country.'

    “According to Global Witness 14 defenders were murdered in Mexico in 2018.

    “Gómez González grew up in #ElRosario, a hamlet in the hills of western Michoacán, where monarch butterflies winter amid dense forests of fir and pine trees.

    “Millions of the butterflies make a 2,000-mile (3,220km) journey each year from Canada to pass the winter in central Mexico’s warmer weather. But the forests and the monarchs are threatened by climate change and the incursion of illegal loggers and #AvocadoFarmers.

    “A gentle man with a salt-and-pepper hair and thick mustache, Gómez González was born into a logging family according to a profile in the Washington Post.
    “‘We were afraid that if we had to stop logging, it would send us all into poverty,' he told the newspaper.

    “But he eventually convinced others to abandon logging and protect butterfly habitats instead, figuring tourism would replace the lost income. The sanctuary is now a #UnescoWorldHeritageSite and federal law outlaws logging in the site.

    #GómezGonzález often posted mesmerising videos of fluttering monarchs to social media.

    “In one of his last videos, shared on Twitter a day before his disappearance, Homero Gómez González stood amid a cloud of butterflies. 'Come and and see this marvel of nature! [The #butterflies] are lovers of the sun, the souls of the dead,' he said, referring to #IndigenousLegends about the migratory butterflies.

    “Speaking to the AP, #HomeroAridjis, an environmentalist and poet who is a longtime defender of the butterfly reserve, said: 'If they can kidnap and kill the people who work for the reserves, who is going to defend the environment in Mexico?’”
