Speaking of favorite pieces, I was completely entranced when I first saw this painting by @christibelcourt.com a few years ago (my wife had the same reaction encountering it for the first time today), and it’s only grown on me since.

With anti-immigrant sentiments ramping up more than usual in Alberta, thanks to the Alberta Premier herself, I’ve noticed a couple posts on my socials reiterating this crap. Instant block. Never surprising when from Maple MAGAs but always surprising when it’s from Indigenous people.

My new @christibelcourt.com beauty is ready to hang! A cluster of lily pads is one of my safe resourcing visuals for relational trauma therapy: I can be part of a family but also separate. Our roots are ultimately connected & we share trauma (waves) together, but we can move separately #art

When Steven Harper brought in multiple damaging legislation hidden within the Omnibus bills people were outraged. But when they elected the Liberals next, the Liberals didn’t reverse any of the legislation that they campaigned on and that people had taken to the streets on.

Begging folks to realize that ICE enforcement is a mass disabling event. People are being shot. They’ve been blinded. They’ve been traumatized. The camps are full of disease. TB, Covid and measles can all kill but they also disable. It’s eugenics. www.texastribune.org/2026/02/07/i...

Eighteen cases of COVID-19 were also identified. U.S. Rep. Veronica Escobar on Friday visited the 5,000-bed tent facility on the Fort Bliss Army base and said she saw many "chronic issues."

Idk they just approved and sent another 6 Billion to Israel last week. If it’s true they aren’t mentioning it as much, it hasn’t slowed the actual and financial support or influence who remain abysmally silent on what they are doing to Palestinians. 10,000 being tortured in prisons. No charges.

One of my personal favourite Canadian artists, @christibelcourt.com is also a tireless fighter for Métis and First Nations rights in Canada and around the globe. Her work is groundbreaking, important, and breathtakingly beautiful. Highly recommend following her (and @womensartbluesky.bsky.social)🙌💖

Here is what Trump said at the 2024 debate: “They will take the life of a child in the eighth month, the ninth month and even after birth.” And everyone called it a “wild claim” EVERY ACCUSATION IS A CONFESSION.

One of the detainees speaking out in this article is Nasra Ahmed, a 23 year old US citizen who was grabbed by ICE on her way to the pharmacy to pick up anti seizure medication. She had her papers. ICE didn’t care. She’s been arrested again at an anti ICE protest.

There’s 5 year olds who’ve been locked up in a Texas ICE camp for over 8 months. That’s where they sent little Liam Ramos. He’s not being “protected”. He’s incarcerated. He did nothing wrong. His parents did nothing wrong. They were applying for asylum. Release the children.

It’s pretty fucking wild that the only reason why certain conservatives are just now turning against ICE tactics is because Pretti was a white male with a conceal carry who believed in the second ammendment. His humanity didn’t matter to them til the NRA got pissed.

This is a dangerous and irresponsible response. Cheering the illegal abduction of a foreign head of state and celebrating U.S. control over another country is wrong. Canada cannot pick & choose when international law applies. If the rules only matter when it’s convenient, they don’t protect anyone

The US has attacked a country, kidnapped its head of state, and is seizing its oil. Trump has invoked the Monroe Doctrine. This is a moment for Canada to stand up: condemn this act of imperialism. Reject impunity and the politics of brute force.

For a good decade or so now l've been watching and witnessing a resurgence of Indigenous arts and languages like l've never seen. I'm sure you've all seen it too. I'm watching technology meet the creative ideas that weren't possible before (contemporary Indigenous fashion for example). Watching traditional dance and regalia explode in colour, creativity and nationhood pride. Watching moosehide tanning and traditional arts come back strong. Seeing more Indigenous authors being published than ever before. The Indigenous film community is on fire too. Seeing people pushing their boundaries in all art fields. Non-Indigenous people outside our collective sharing don't really know this or see it perhaps. I also see us collectively rejecting the ideas of pan-Indigeneity that were once a necessary stepping stone to get help people come home and get reorganized to where we are now. People are piecing together the pieces of the puzzle that were once scattered by colonialism.
Distilling things back to our nations and communities where they belong.
Claiming what is authentically 'ours' and part of that is identifying people and culture that is not. It's been glorious to witness this resurgence and renaissance and innovation within the arts in various nations. And to be part of within in my own.
And at the same time there is all this exciting beautfulness there is also people in our families or communities suffering badly. I don't forget them ever.
I don't know why the solution is. Not proposing one. Just sharing thoughts today as I work on my beadwork. Thinking all these things and more.
