Happy Indigenous Peoples Day. I am proud and walk with honor with the spirits of my ancestors today.

Happy Indigenous People's Day! 🪶
Celebrate with pride.
Happy Indigenous People's Day! The only Christopher we acknowledge is Wallace!
We survived diseases brought by European immigrants.
We survived the biggest betrayal of teaching them how to survive on the lands we took care of, just for them to claim it as their own.
We survived being slaves.
We survived massacres that took our ancestors from us.
We survived the destruction of our food sources and tactics like starvation to force us from the places we call home.
We survived the Trail of Tears.
We survived treaties being broken.
We survived wars waged against our people for defending our homelands.
We survived being forced from our lands and imprisoned far from our homes.
We survived Boarding Schools.
We survived not being able to practice our languages and traditions.
We survived being forced to abandon our spiritual beliefs.
We survived having our children taken from our families and communities.
We survived having our ancestors remains stolen and our sacred belongings taken.
We survived our sovereignty being attacked and our right to govern ourselves being taken away.
We survived discrimination and generations of attempts to erase our identities.
They called us savages when their unhigenic practices nearly wiped us out, when they destroyed everything in their path.
BUT WE ARE STILL HERE!
From this proud Indigenous soul, Shil nzhoo. 💖🫂💖
I love every living being. Speaking our truth doesn’t change that. Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!
Thanks for posting that, I always heard that my family tree had native blood in it. I did a DNA test many years ago and it did confirm it. It did not show the tribe, the family believes it is Cherokee. My Grandmother was from NC so that would make sense.
