On the topic of #landback a piece reflective of ancestral connection to land.
You cannot be missing something that is inherently a part of you.

i was removed by my university’s payment plan. had to spend money on textbooks that aren’t eligible for reimbursement for low-income students. can’t participate in extracurriculars because it requires dues. i can’t afford to live but i still have to go to class and deal with it.

looking through some family archives.
this is my great-aunt in tribal regalia. the specific regalia in this photo has been passed down and continued to be worn by the newer generation of my family.
makes me so grateful that our ancestry was documented and preserved so well by my family.

that being said, if you’re an indigenous artist, professional, creator, etc., let’s keep supporting one another especially when a platform that gave us an opportunity to share information and earn additional income has been taken away ✊🏾🪶
i just lost my indigenous following base from the tiktok ban 🫠 all the culture i’ve shared and received, gone.

being the only indigenous student in the class is tough, but also a lesson of speaking up and existing in a space that my family wouldn’t have been accepted in years ago. to live so indigenously in this day and age is a blessing i won’t take for granted 💕

i am happy to share my language and culture— if you get to know me. not to strangers who i barely met who think my culture should be displayed to them the moment they demand.
to white people who ask me to teach them my tribal language: my family spent generations trying to preserve a language that could’ve died, why are YOU entitled to learning it from me?

being indigenous in a PWI is mind boggling— it has the money to build an indigenous land memorial on campus but absolutely no resources for native students? and don’t get me started on having to explain why calling me Indian is outdated 😬

I get that settlers are drawn to Indigenous identity because it absolves them from being colonizers. But you are not Indigenous just because you want to be. You are not Indigenous because you had a dream. You are not Métis because you like the idea better than being French Canadian.
