Wrote this piece for Harpers Bazaar about the life, legacy, and hate-induced murder of Jonathan Joss through the eyes of being a Two-Spirit Native person this Pride.

I hope you take a read. For Him. For all of us. 🪶

One of the best explanations I’ve seen of the stakes of the disregard of data laws intended to prevent wholesale surveillance of the US public by its govt. The DOGE one-two punch is to disregard or dissolve the data regulations that protect us and then use AI to consolidate info about each of us.

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans.

Upholding our treaty obligations is not optional.

We know recent ICE encounters in urban areas have caused stress & concern. There have been no confirmed detentions, but counseling services available if needed. Carry your driver's license & reach out to local reps for support.

So honored to give this talk on Settler Militarism on 2/28 @ 6pm EST. All proceeds will go to the Sameer Project! Thank you to @workshops4gaza.bsky.social for the invitation and for organizing 💜

It is amazing what universities will stand up for and against when there’s money involved. Land-grant Us have their own association because of course they do. They will stand up for each other to keep NIH. It’s a matter of law and civility in the settler imperium.

UofC, where land acknowledgements are deemed political speech. Deeply inspired by the students and their ethical clarity.

One of our brilliant students wrote an analysis of how Universities laid the groundwork for Trump's repressive policies. www.thenation.com/article/acti...

Trump is not joking about making Canada the 51st state, Justin Trudeau warns in hot mic comments www.thestar.com/politics/don...

Because in this moment, with H5N1 and egg shortages among all the other attacks on life, this is the story NY Times runs.

Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.

I hope every Indigenous artist proposes a celebration of "Merciless Indian Savages" for the semiquincentinnial. America250! Amazing.
