People are told to stay serene instead of seeing injustice.
Real strength is honesty.
Real connection is community.
Real leadership feels the truth.
Never Give Up

My new ebook drops on Kindle in 72 hours.
Pedagogy of Canada’s Systems was born from one truth: institutions claim to uphold the Charter, TRC, UNDRIP, and human rights — but hide behind policy instead of law.
This book is my refusal.

“Don’t be rude” warnings are a colonial tool.
They weaponize policy to avoid legal accountability.
TRC, UNDRIP and the Charter confirm the power imbalance Indigenous peoples face.
Tone policing is DARVO.
Rights are upheld by clarity and courage, never politeness.

Humans carry a shame we were never meant to hold: the idea we need achievements to deserve life.
A wolf doesn’t question its purpose. A bird doesn’t ask why it was born.
Life simply lives, and that is enough.
We’ve forgotten that worth comes from being, not performing.

Sectarianization keeps us divided, blind, and domesticated. Paradise is here—our living Earth. But we treat her as waste. Civilization calls itself progress, yet devours its own. Leadership means awakening to truth. Are you ready to see?

Charity is praised as kindness. But often it props up the very systems causing harm. It casts communities as “in need” while donors stay superior. Real change means justice, not band-aids. Solidarity, not saving. Decolonization, not philanthropy. #Decolonize #CharitableRacism
