How long we have to tell people this?! How long before they admit the truth?! How long?! They're comfortable in their hypocrisy! They're comfortable in their greed and hate!

On this day December 29th 1890 the United States 7th Calvary massacred mostly women and children and some men (mostly unarmed) with the Hotchkiss machine gun in South Dakota. The soldiers were spooked thinking they were about to practice the Ghost Dance they murdered Chief Bigfoot. This 9 x 14 ft mixed media canvas I painted to commemorate this and the 1973 AIM battle with the US government at the same location. Many Americans at that time didn't really think any Indians even existed still. The American Indian Movement ( AIM) fought to bring attention to the right of contemporary Indians. They sought for Native rights, the environment and to remove the oppressive hold of christian and government , corporate capitalist control. My painting was initially painted in 1992 and was exhibited at the Korean Embassy in New York City. Later the painting was exhibited at the Kimo Theater in Albuquerque New Mexico at a fundraiser for Native Americans spiritual rights to have sweat lodges in prisons. The Mayor of Albuquerque took offence because of the 2 upside down flags (which means distress in flag etiquette) Today the genocide of almost all living Indigenous peoples of all the major continents continues. A war on people in harmony with nature continues. A new Ghost Dance has been born! #woundedkneemasscre #woundedknee #ghostdance #aim #cheifbigfoot #woundedknee73 #americanholocaust #indianwars #kimotheater #forgottenhistory #mixedmedia #controversialart #indianartists #theusflag #murderedchildren #americanindian #nativeametican #rememberwoundedknee #rememberwoundedknee1890 (at Wounded Knee, South Dakota) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmxEXfdO2xI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I've been so excited for this book, and now it's here, just in time for Thanksgiving! At last, a story of Thanksgiving written by a member of the Wampanoag people, telling real history in a way that is accessible to little ones. This book tells the often-fictionalized tale from a Native perspective, creating the character of Weeâchumun (corn) to tell the story, along with Nokomis (grandmother), who unfolds the events to her grandchildren. It shows the generosity and caring of the Wampanoag people, and the mixed feelings of welcoming and wariness they felt for the people who needed help, but did not listen to the land. It tells the accurate account of the "first Thanksgiving," where settlers prepared a feast and fired muskets into the air, which alerted the Wampanoag (they didn't invite them to the feast). It notes how for settlers, the day is called Thanksgiving, but for many native people, it is a day of mourning. Yet this book is not somber, but thoughtful, a prelude to learning more (the back matter is particularly helpful). I strongly recommend this to all teachers, parents, and anyone wanting to show kids a "true" Thanksgiving story. #socialstudies #keepunumuk #thanksgiving #kindergarten #wampanoag #firstnationspeople #firstpeople #nativeamericans #americanindian #thanksgiving2022 #americanindianheritagemonth #nativeamerican #nativeamericanheritagemonth #teachinghardhistory #teacherlibrarian #teachthetruth #teachtruth #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #librariansfollowlibrarians #librariansofinstagram #schoollibrarian #librarian #historyforkids #history #childrensbooks #ownvoices https://www.instagram.com/p/CkrjQryMd-q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Balance.
Life is a balance. It requires both darkness and light.It isn’t always going to be positive.It isn’t supposed to be. And the sooner we begin to accept that- the sooner we can look our darkness in the face and embrace it.Tame it.When it gets dark- focus on the light. And if it isn’t there- remember who you can call.Today, I’m thankful for kind friends who show up ❤️Create the light. #positivity

So Luke comes out of Perkins Restaurant and gets in the car with a small bag and he says "I got a blueberry muffin just for being an Indian."
I thought I didn't hear him correctly, so I said "What?" And he repeated himself.
"Ok explain" I said.
"The server asked if I was an Indian. And I said yes. And he said he wanted to give me something so he gave me this blueberry muffin."
So now #Reparation Muffins are a thing.
