When those commitments were broken, it wasn’t just land that was taken, but the chance to build something wiser together. The question that keeps echoing for me is: what would accountability and repair actually look like today if we took treaty relationships seriously again?

That’s a powerful reminder that treaties weren’t myths or misunderstandings; they were living agreements rooted in knowledge, relationship, and responsibility.

I hear what you’re saying and that recognition *DOES feel like a line you can’t unsee once it’s crossed. But if the divide is permanent, what does accountability or protection actually look like for people caught on the wrong side of power without giving up on our shared humanity entirely?

I get the concern about media trust, editing DOES matter. But there’s also a difference between selective clips and silencing uncomfortable speech. The bigger question is Who decides what’s “acceptable” to hear, and what happens when that power keeps shifting?

It’s a powerful line, but it also opens a bigger conversation, if we accept that history, what responsibility do we carry NOW to create something more just for the people living here today?

Exactly and that quiet gesture mattered just as much. Different generations, same message: when artists use their platform, is it symbolism, or a signal that culture is ready to push policy next?

That moment felt raw and human, gratitude mixed with urgency, hope mixed with anger. You don’t have to agree with every word to feel the fear and compassion behind it. The real question is: how do we turn that emotion into action that actually protects people without hardening the divide even more?

What a kind and practical reminder! It’s amazing how a simple act "like clearing the snow around a hydrant" can make a real difference in someone’s safety. 💙❄️ Thanks for spreading good energy and community care here!

I was hoping to get a response from you all.
