Today I wear red to raise awareness about all the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Woman, Girls and 2-Spirited people I added a traditional garment from Toraja culture so hopefully people will ask me about it on the streets and I can flip the subject to #MMIWG2S (No face bc this is not about me)

Picture if my torso dressed in a red sweater with a black sarung with gold wave motives I am wearing two braids in my hair.

Hello new followers. This is the person behind this account. I am Indigenous Torajan (Toraja Utara, Sulawesi Indonesia), living in Mexico city I mostly post about Indigenous issues and about whiteness. Please check your priviliges before you engage with my posts.

Not going to lie. You all kinds suck on this app because of your white centered anti-indigenous mindset that doesn't care about Indigenous perspectives. See the difference?

White women can you please stop appropriating the red handprint. Thank you in advance. More context: #mmiwg2s www.nativehope.org/missing-and-....

About cultural appropriation and why it is harmful. This French metal band appropriated our culture's religion, Aluk to dolo, and they portray our religion, which is endangered because of colonialism, as some barbaric "occult" religion because of our unique ways to deal with the deceased. 👇🏽

A screenshot with band info the band's name is Aluk Todolo.

For all you genocide and apartheid apologists out there who try to legitimize the occupation of Palestine with the bs argument that "Israeli people aren't colonizers". Read the definition of colonization and compare it to the situation in Gaza, West Bank, Golan Heights and Palestine in general.

B. Definitions of Colonization and Decolonization

Colonization generally refers to the process that
is perpetuated after the initial control over Indigenous Peoples is achieved through invasion and conquest. Perpetuating colonization allows the colonizers to maintain or expand their social, political, and economic power. It is detrimental to us because their power comes at the expense of Indigenous lands, resources, lives, and self-determination. Not only has colonization resulted in the loss of major rights such as land and self-determination, most of our contemporary daily struggles are also a direct consequence of colonization (poverty, family violence, chemical depen- dency, suicide, health deterioration). Colonization is an all-encompassing presence in our lives.

Posting my comment here because the troll blocked me and people can not see my call out for antisemitic tropes anymore.

There is nothing Indigenous about being a US state . Thats called whiteness.

Israël isn't Jewish people. Your narrative of Jews being evil oppressors is disgustingly antisemitic.

Tip: Tomorrow is Indigenous Peoples Day. If you are wondering how to celebrate Indigenous peoples day appropriately then here's a good way to bring some color in the streets and to make up a bit for celebrating your culture's savage genocide glorifying holiday. Or just tear them colonizers down.

Aan m'n NLse volgers: Als je ècht kritisch gaat stemmen, ipv voor meer kruimels die deze koloniale samenleving je geeft, denk dan ajb goed na of 'n partij die macht geeft aan lui die de dekoloniale strijd kapen voor genocide ontkenning en Javanisering, jouw stem wel verdient.#Bij1 Free West Papua

The Morning Star Flag

Free West Papua!!
