#systematicracism — Public Fediverse posts

Systematic racism includes not honouring treaties with Indigenous people, while our genocide suppporting governments are trying to promote patriotic nationalism.

Whitewashing, funded by our tax dollars.

Hitting up the phone lines again tonight.
I was waiting on one friend & he's a paramedic who got called in. I'm now waiting on 7 different volunteers for tonight's #phonebanking #RemoteProtest to support #Minnesota under siege by #ICENazis aka #TrumpsTerrorists.
We're volunteer #Canadians who have been on the #BoycottUSA #SanctionUSA trains for longer than this NectarineNazi was in office - the first time!

I don't actually understand why ANY (except MAGA fools) still thinks this #FascistUSA is anywhere close to fucking OK! Except for #SystematicAbuse #SystematicRacism.

WRONG IS FUCKING WRONG.

I'm going to do a full context video report tomorrow because it's important for other #Canadians to know how the #GovernmentOfCanada has tried to bully my Mom since even before #BCNDP #BCgovernment #FailuresToProtect citizens with #covid.

This is now the 3rd time that federal government has severely fucked up & demanded my Mom - who has been fucking retired early since Summer of 2020 - to pay them back funds she's eligible for. First time they fucked up was in 2022 & it took 9 months for feds to admit they fucked up & they had to send Mom retroactive payments while we were planning Dad's funeral. 2nd time they fucked up was 1 year after & they stopped her OAS payments & also threatened her with stopping all federal benefits that she earned from working her entire life after coming to Canada as a war refugee in November 1980.
It took over 11 months for feds to stop threatening my family for yet another one of their admin fuck ups. Their big fuck ups end up putting more traumas on our backs. Yes - we are fucking ANGRY.

A decade after Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: 94 Calls to Action report was released - Provincial & federal governments are still actively violating #UNDRIP & using taxpayers funds to fight #Indigenous #FirstNations in courts.

This is ongoing #capitalist driven #colonialism.
It was wrong before. It's wrong now.
I don't care WTF any government PR says about respecting & honouring #NativePeople & wanting to help First Nation communities, when they're whitewashing/greenwashing & being exploitive divide to conquer, greedy jerks.

Before I head out for the day ->
Recommended #documentary film.

Between 1952 and 1960, Britain fought a vicious war in Kenya against the anticolonial Mau Mau movement. It was an exceptionally bloody conflict, with atrocities committed on both sides. For decades, many of the worst abuses by British colonial forces were kept hidden. Piecing together survivor testimonies and expert analysis from British and Kenyan historians, this film tells a complete and detailed story for the first time of how Britain was involved in systemic torture – including accounts of murders, rapes and forced castrations.

A Very British Way of Torture is a film by Ed McGown and produced by Rob Newman.

Building the #SettlerColonial Order: #Police (In)Actions in Response to #Violence Against #IndigenousWomen in #Canada

Abstract:

In this article we focus on missing and murdered #Indigenous women, girls, and #2SLGBTQQIA people in Canada. We theorize narratives that police employ to respond to this violence. Using a broad data sample of #testimonies across Canada, this article contributes to understanding how police (in)actions make sense of, justify, and dismiss violence against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA people. We draw from 48 in-depth semi-structured interviews with Indigenous peoples in Toronto and other Canadian cities and 219 testimonies from the Canadian National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (NIMMIWG). The #analysis finds that police repeatedly use similar frames (topics), styles (linguistic and behavioral strategies), and storylines (narratives) to respond to violence against Indigenous peoples. While framing Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA people as deviants helps police make sense of and explain violence against them, the use of verbal and behavioral strategies (indifference, callousness, and lack of information) and storylines (“they were [insert pathologizing frame]” and “there’s nothing we can do”) allows police to dismiss and justify acts of violence. We argue that the frames, styles, and storylines employed by police perpetuate violence. Police (in)actions are fundamental to achieving settler #colonialism’s ideological and material dimensions.
