Legal recognition and demarcation of Indigenous territories means safeguarding possible futures for everyone. For millennia, #IndigenousPeoples have protected the planet’s richest biodiversity, not by coincidence, but through a deep, reciprocal relationship with the land #COP30 #EnvironmentalJustice

Please share: we keep going with every ounce of radical hope—right?

Six families & a displacement camp—food, shelter, winter & baby supplies, rebuilding costs, a C-section (🚨)—still famine & fire, still survival needs, still survival funds.

This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we are witnessing a modern-day atrocity: the state-sponsored kidnapping of our youth by ICE. They are being taken off our streets. This is not immigration enforcement; it is the forced displacement of indigenous children from their ancestral land.
