Rising residential school denialism and anti-Indigenous racism have created an environment where white supremacists feel emboldened to target and intimidate First Nations in their communities. It’s disgusting and completely unacceptable.

As a final
act of the night, the President of the United
States of America told his supporters, in
front of cameras and the entire world, that
they needed to cheat in the midterms, that
they would go to hell if they didn't vote,
before ending the convention by
demanding they pledge their allegiance to
him and not their country:
"Raise your right hand. I pledge to the
greatest president in the history of the
United States. That loves us so much he
can't even breathe. That I will go out with
my family, my friends. I'l do it any way,l
don't care if l'm registered or not, l'm- going
to try to cheat like hell like they do. 1 am
gonna go out, and l'm going to get my
friends, my family and we are going to vote
on November 3 or we are going to vote
before that."
Then he added: "You know what happens
if you don't vote? You go to hell, you know
that. And I don't want that to happen to
you, so please go and vote."
