Susan Coltman @susancoltman.bsky.social · 30/09/2026My mom is my orange shirt. 🧡 She's proof that they didn't win. They tried to take everything: her language, her culture, her family, her land. She carried the hardship, and she carried the strength too. And I'm the orange shirt too. I'm the next generation, the proof that we're still here. 052
