Super excited that this amazing book is finally available for preorder. It was written by over 50 Indigenous Peoples from around the world and contains stories, poetry, and critical thought pieces on how TEK is used and extracted from our communities and what folks are doing to protect it.

Tonight there will be a Blue Supermoon at 9:35 ET
The moon will appear about 8% larger than a normal full moon and 15% brighter than a normal full moon.
The next one won't be until January 2037. Keep any eye out tonight!

I spent a long time writing, and living through, this story about my dad's healthcare journey. It's the most widely read, and consequential, piece I have ever written. Posting it here for anyone interested who may not have seen it. ottawacitizen.com/feature/the-...
The Fall: My once-vibrant dad emerged broken from the hospital. Then he was gone.
A longtime health reporter, Elizabeth Payne thought she understood Canada's failing health-care system. Then her dad fell.

Homelessness is an independent driver of chronic pain.
Caused by rough sleeping, injury & recurrent infection.
Exacerbated by victimization, trauma, stigma + subtherapeutic analgesia in healthcare.
No wonder folks develop substance use disorders.
If only I could prescribe housing.

On a clear night, we can see thousands of stars. Any one of which gives us hope that we can make better days ahead.

There is so much to love and fight for. So much goodness among us. The violence & hate seems insurmountable. But in the words of Elder Arvol Looking Horse: “Each of us is put here in this time & this place to decide the future of humankind. Did you think you were put here for something else?"
