"We will not be taken off the maps"
NARF is asking indigenous people to ensure the 2020 Census does not ignore them; since homelands are being DIRECTLY AFFECTED BY SETTLER GREED it is imperative that the damages be made apparent to the perpetrators. Repatriation with representation is the only solution:
"... a senior attorney with the Native American Rights Fund, said even though front-line workers are doing their best, the census won’t get an accurate count in Alaska.
“I want to tell every American Indian and Alaska Native to be counted as an act of rebellion because this census is designed not to count you,” said Landreth. “It is designed for you to not have [congressional] districts. It is designed for you to not have federal monies,” said Landreth. “Make yourself heard because I don't think they want to hear from you.”
The bureau “had what our Senate delegation told us was more than sufficient funding for the census,” said Landreth. “I said, ‘if that's the case, how come zero dollars are being spent on language assistance in Alaska with the highest percentage of Native language speakers per capita in the United States?’"
