For millions of Indigenous Americans, Thanksgiving is tied to a history of invasion, displacement, and devastation as settlers took over the land that is now the US aje.io/bb1ezw
Thanksgiving: A story of celebration and pain, in maps
It's a day to give thanks. But for millions of Indigenous Americans, it also serves as a reminder of loss.

"Every year, we tell the mythical story of the first Thanksgiving so we can ignore the obvious truth that this land was taken not by friendship, but by violence."

Good reading from @rebeccanagle.bsky.social. A moving reflection on how we got to where we are, what it cost and still costs, to create memories that are comfortable for some. As a newly-minted citizen I’ll take this as my Thanksgiving meditation. 🦃
The myth of Thanksgiving is as American as it is wrong

If you’re a settler on these lands like I am, one small way to be a good guest is by giving to trusted Native organizations on Thankstaking! Here’s where I’m donating this year: Tribal Elder Box Food Program, led by Loka’s advisors, Gary Besaw & Dan Cornelius! 🙏🏽 feedingamericawi.org/tribal-food-...

Boom!💥Selection💥
'Now while those cats get fat
In came all the rats
Stole away the cheese
And doing as they please
Jack Spratt ate all the fat
His wife ate all the lean
And so between the both, you see
They licked the platter clean'

It should be called Hurricane Exxon.

Echoing colleagues: Think before you (re)post. #Melissa is about to impact a relatively poor part of Jamaica. I doubt we will know the true extent of the devastation for days or weeks.

Information vacuums fill with disinformation. Expect a lot of “breaking wind” on SM.

Fentanyl and coke are the new “weapons of mass destruction” lie. It’s Iraq all over again, folks. It’s always about controlling the oil.
