American Museum of Natural History had a precious :mowachahtmuchalaht: Mowachaht/Muchalaht whaling shrine in storage for 120 years.

It's going home. 🙌🙌

The shrine was in a secret location near Yuquot, which was also the point of first contact between European colonists and west coast Nations in Canada.

It is possible to visit Yuquot by taking the working-ferry from Gold River. Great day trip!

A dark skinned First Nations man stands and speaks. He is wearing a heavy brown jacket. Some people are standing behind him. There are also some drawings or paintings. They are standing in hall of the church at Yoquot. The caption says: "It wasn't to be spoken of or displayed or anything like that," explained Mowachaht/Muchalaht Tyee Ha'wilth Mike Maquinna, who awaits a period of helping his people understand how the whalers' shrine should be respected.

Something that would never happen if Canada was "the 51st State”.

"The Lax Kw’alaams band has called a referendum for April 9 to vote on the proposed Da’ax Kw’alaams Man-Ayaawx Constitution, a momentous step toward establishing their own self-governance framework.”

"First Nations leaders in northern Ontario are pushing back against American and Canadian tariffs, arguing that these trade barriers ignore their treaty rights and centuries-old trade routes."
"First Nations are being shut out of critical discussions that impact their economies, despite having well-established trade networks that predate Canada and the United States."

Leaders full of heart and dignity maybe come along once in our lifetimes. If Wab Kinew ever decides to run for Prime Minister of #Canada I'll vote for whatever party he chooses to lead.

At a press conference on March 26, #Winnipeg police confirmed the identity of Mashkode Bizhiki’ikwe (Buffalo Woman), to be Ashlee Shingoose.

Ashlee’s father Albert Shingoose had one request for #Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew: sing a song in her honour.

fnmi identity fraud resources (“First Nations, Métis, Inuit” - the new terminology to replace the word “Indigenous.”)

ghostwarriorsociety.com/kiskin

(im not sure how far known this term is so im putting indigenous in the hashtag for better reach, but will remove if called in/out this is actually a resource that's more for non-fnmi so that we can stop getting misinformation from outside the community)

The very difficult debate over the #Mungo #burials.

'The reburial of the final skeletal remains into undisturbed and unmarked grave sites — overseen by a group of elders — is currently underway.

But some traditional owners hope a last-ditch federal court case will stop the reburials and allow a public "keeping place" to preserve the remains for further scientific study.'

Historically, peaceful demonstrations and public #advocacy have been instrumental in advancing #HumanRights, #PublicHealth, and #EnvironmentalProtection worldwide. Suppressing such activism not only undermines democratic freedoms but also places #Alberta at odds with the global movement toward #climate responsibility. This is doubly our responsibility while we are on journey of #reconciliation with #FirstNations, #Inuit, and #Métis peoples.
