TOMORROW 🎉 WE'RE LAUNCHING OUR NEW IGTV SERIES 🎉

Amplifying Indigenous Voices will go live bi-weekly to host Indigenous organizations, leaders, Nation members, journalists, influencers, educators and more.

A MAJOR directive of @nativelandnet is to highlight the lived Indigenous experience and this new show is our way to elevate our voices while humanizing the organizations and folx out here working in Indigenous spaces.

JOIN OUR LAUNCH: Thursday, May 13th at 11 am (Pacific time)

FEATURING: Native Governance Center @nativegov

HOSTED BY: Our digital comms coordinator @nadifantastic

TOPIC: Going Beyond Land Acknowledgements

LOCATION: On our Instagram! @nativelandnet

While we witness that this day is derived from set

While we witness that this day is derived from settler routines, we are choosing to honour the opportunity and celebrate the land-based understanding of the matriarch's role in Indigenous culture.

Traditional global teaching excludes much of Indigenous history - this is a well-known fact - but even the context that IS taught or shared still excludes the powerful position and perspective of Indigenous women+.

Indigenous societies and nations were/are often matrilineal lead (which is a framework rejected by global white supremacy which has spent its entire existence permitting the rise of white men over all other alternatives.)

This is where we encourage independent learning:

What do you know about matriarch leadership in Indigenous culture?

Do a little looking around - a google search - see what you can connect with to gain new perspectives that honour the matriarch through a deeper Indigenous understanding.

This is a topic we'll loop back to in our content & soon-to-launch IGTV series Amplifying Indigenous Voices

Share with us what you know or learn! We welcome DM's and kind comments.

If you are an Indigenous woman+ and would like to chat with us on the IGTV show about matriarchal roles in your culture - DM us and let's chat! 🍃

It’s never the wrong time to push back against t

It’s never the wrong time to push back against the oppressive systems that shadow ban and erase Indigenous voices. For the last year, all social media platforms have been deleting posts, erasing stories and shadow banning content related to Black Lives Matter - this recent attack on #mmiw #mmiwg #mmiwgs2s #mmiwg2st is part of that same toxic ecosystem.

Where does it end?

Who holds these platforms accountable, if not for us?

RePosted with much gratitude to @illuminative for leading this initiative...

Join us in turning @instagram red to disrupt the #MMIWGActionNow erasure.
