Alaska vowed to resolve the murders of Indigenous people.

But when one nonprofit asked state law enforcement officials for a fundamental piece of data — a list of Indigenous murders they’d investigated — the state said no.

Alaska Vowed to Resolve Murders of Indigenous People. Now It Refuses to Provide Their Names.
When the nonprofit Data for Indigenous Justice filed public records requests with the Alaska Department of Public Safety concerning cases it had investigated, the state rejected them.

She was the last living survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, right? Losing an important connector like her, without her ever receiving reparations, and in a year like this one that has gone so far backwards is an extra level of heartbreak. Godspeed.

If you’re seeing these, know that they are showing proof that much MUCH of the rightwing propaganda we are seeing is from abroad. Know also that this has been the case since 2016. The public square has been turned into a superfund site.

DOD contractors “mistakenly” landed on a Mexican beach, declared it US property and planted “restricted area” DOD signs, triggering a tense confrontation with armed Mexican forces.

Mexico removed the signs, insisting the area is theirs.

Yet another example of total incompetence.
