  1. #Namgis #FirstNation #BigHouse - #AlertBay #CormorantIsland. From my 2023 visit.

    The Namgis #FirstPeoples use their big house for cultural #community events. #T̓sasała #Cultural Group uses the big house for sharing cultural teachings, songs & dances.

    "You will see the next generation of #Kwakwa̱k̕a̱wakw sharing our culture to educate the world about our ancient songs, dances, teachings and values. These teachings are still being passed on today to the children of T'sasała.

    You will witness the dances of the T̕seka, our red cedar bark ceremony. You will see the traditional dances that connect us to the land, sky, and sea. The #T̕seka will be followed by the T̕ła'sala ceremony - peace dances, then finally the #A̱mlala or fun dances where you will get a chance to join in."

  6. Originally known as Ho3o’uu Niitko’usi’i in the Arapaho language. To the Ute people, this is a sacred land, believing the formations to be ancestral beings “frozen” into the rocks, or even the origin of their existence #indigenous #nativeland

  7. @cbcbc_mirror #BCNDP & federal Liberals don't care about respecting #IndigenousRights. They have blown millions of tax dollars to sue Indigenous peoples in BC & they sic RCMP on native land defenders. #Colonizers never really changed & are still abusive/exploitive. They never planned to fully implement #UNDRIP.

  12. #Landback includes #Hawaii & all those other places where so many people like to go on sunny vacations at & where many non-residents buy properties from colonial land thieves.

    You can't be totally serious about #decolonization & the related landback issues - if you don't include Hawaii & other sunny holiday hotspots. That's just a selective, fragmented, unethical & immoral colonial mindset.

    Decolonization & related landback issues aren't restricted to Turtle Island (North & South Americas) or Australia or Palestine. It's global.

  13. I love looking through native-land.ca. I learn something new every time I go, usually by just clicking on one of the random articles on the side. It's pretty clear that it's a small team behind it, and I wish they had more resources to be able to put more indigenous languages on the map (literally!).

    If you have some time on your hands and a passion for language, I'd highly suggest checking out their Volunteer page: native-land.ca/how-to-contribu It's a lovely way to contribute to/learn about global Indigenous sovereignty and lift up marginalized voices. Each language is a worldview; we can learn so much if only we look for it!

    Also this is Ariel; I'd post this on my profile but wandering.shop has a very small character allowance and I am way too long-winded for it, I have found :P

    #Canada’s #NationalParks Are #Colonial #CrimeScenes.

    Many see wilderness as a right of citizenship. But the concept of Canada as untouched #nature is unrecognizable to #Indigenous people

    In 2017, it felt like the whole country was swept up in the rah-rah celebrations around Canada 150. It was a collective anniversary, a chance to celebrate our history. Well, some of it, anyway. Tied to the many calls to explore the country and take stock of its many wonders, #ParksCanada released its Discovery Pass, which granted free entry to all national parks that year. These natural spaces “represent the very best that Canada has to offer,” it announced in a press release. “They are the essence of our country because they tell stories of who we are, including the history, cultures and contributions of Indigenous peoples.” But, as Robert Jago explored in his timely essay, Canada’s parks program was built on the displacement of Indigenous peoples and the capture of their territories—a form of “green colonialism.” Parks are wonderful spaces, but they have also acted as #political cover for the control of land, a tactic we still see used today.—Daniel Viola, senior editor, November 2023 issue.
