The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans.

I’m following @aoc.bsky.social ‘s call to action and you should too. Call your senator. Even if they are a Democrat. Call them and tell them not to confirm any more of Trump’s picks until Elon stops stripping our government. Don’t get overwhelmed. We need to stay engaged.

My heart hurts for all the patients on federally funded clinical trials who don’t know if they will be able to access treatment. This is cruel.

“When you look at these large cohorts of cancer patients, it’s very rare that Native Americans are included.”

Increasing access to high quality cancer care while upholding Tribal sovereignty will change this.

Wifey co-created this immersive theatre project about the US Army murdering and mutilating 500 peaceful Cheyenne and Arapahoe people at Sand Creek. Indigenous folks feel this history today and colonizers need to as well so we all can heal.
