Evie Cooper is very quickly becoming a new blorbo. I love the character and how much range she has. It's not every day there's a queer first nations woman on a show that bears the NCIS title made in Australia. As a queer first nations person of Australia Tuuli Narkle is the first person I've come across who I can look at and feel a sort of connection with.

My great grandmother’s portrait is shown in a heroic portrait tradition found in Europe and America. This picture is about my history as valid by using those styles honoured by Non-First Nation art critics and historians.

One time I went to an Indigenous focused doctors office and the doctor told me he wouldn't treat me because I'm too smelly.
Too bad there's no group of Indigenous people that could advise the government on how to assist Indigenous people in getting our needs met or anything...

A beautiful artwork by an Australian artist. It's done with brush markers, and its a canvas painting of freshwater waterlilies!

Until recent centuries, these areas were still occupied by hunter-gatherers – Native Americans in the first three cases and Aboriginal Australians or Native Siberians in the last two.

Indigenous cultures in Atla
https://www.tiktok.com/@cocobree/video/7168195840337562922?_r=1&_t=8XWyMpY2MAD&is_from_webapp=v1&item_id=7168195840337562922

1. Katara is a cartoon character from a fictional country in a fictional universe.
2. The country, or rather tribe she comes from is based in indigenous cultures. the clothing is mostly based in the Inuit and Yupik peoples. The boomerang [called a kylie, Kali or Garli in other mobs] comes from Aboriginal Australian culture, as does the war paint. Aztec and, once again, Inuit culture was used for architecture.
Regardless of the potential problematic implication that all Indigenous cultures are interchangable , Katara and Sokka are not White. No one in Atla is because it’s a world inspired by east asian and Indigenous culture.

Seeing a lot of posts about the Palestinian flag, and it got me thinking about indigenous flags around the world.
Māori:
Kalaallit Nunaat:
Haudenosaunee
Nunatsiavut:
Australian Aboriginal:
Torres Strait Islands:
Rapa Nui:
Kurdistan:
Sami:
Ainu:
Of course, these are just a handful. May they all reclaim their stolen lands.
