They've got you worried
About what's in my pants
Or in others' papers
So you won't worry about
How they use you
To line their pockets
Or crown their heads

They don't care much about their own hate
They care about what your hate can do for them

Removing people from their lands "for their own good," "for their safety," "to a nicer, new place." That's exactly what some people in Oregon were saying in the 1850s when they sent my ancestors to reservations. That's also what the president said today.
Please notice if you haven't already.

White Cindy, or Musksamse Lapli, a Klamath transfeminine ancestor, rides a horse defiantly through lightning and a stormy purple and blue backdrop. A trail of glowing ribbons streaks behind her, coming from her brilliantly white dress. Transgressors, an all-Indigiqueer art exhibition and follow up to My Father's Father's Sister: Our Ancestor Shimkhin, opens Friday, December 13 at Chachalu Museum in Grand Ronde, Oregon, with an opening reception from 4 to 7 PM with the curators and several artists in attendance. Queer and trans identities are cultural, not criminal. Transgressors is on view until April 26, 2025, and will feature monthly supporting events and engagements, including the final presentation of Anthony Hudson's Looking for Tiger Lily in April at Chachalu. The exhibition will then tour Oregon through 2026 with support from Chachalu Museum and Cultural Center, the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, New Expressive Works, the Native Arts and Cultures Foundation, and the Oregon Community Foundation.
