#Repost @seadawn.me ・・・ Suggesting #thankstaking should be reframed and celebrated simply as a day of gratitude and giving thanks is a bypassing tactic of whiteness to dismiss the genocide of colonization and settler colonialism (that has not yet ended) while erasing the lived experiences of the Indigenous peoples of this land. The conversations around the table this week should speak truth to power by acknowledging that everything you have to be grateful for comes from the continued genocide of Indigenous peoples whose stolen land upon which you, your family, and your dinner table sit. Center family discussions that ask who’s land you’re on and how you can financially support their sovereignty, cultural revitalization, and work to GIVE THEM THEIR LAND BACK. Examine who your ancestors are and what role your lineage has played and does play in the continued genocide of Indigenous people of this land. . . @seadawn.me #seadawn #landback #decolonize #gratitude #meandwhitesupremacy #truthtopower #thanksgiving #stopcelebratinggenocide #stopcelebratingsettlercolonialholidays #turkey #grateful #foodasresistance #foodie https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Ynn_SA-T8/?igshid=1twodto07kcbr

We can all use our platform positively today by refusing to honour or acknowledge #Columbus Day #UsingyourPlatformPositively #UPP #Repost @neon_animal with @repostapp ・・・ Stop celebrating genocide and ethnocide (the genocide of culture). It's a joke and an outrage that another year has gone by that Columbus Day is still celebrated and has not yet been abolished. #indigenousPeoplesDay #abolishColumbusDay #fuckcolumbusday #StopCelebratingGenocide #Columbusday #christophercolumbus #indigenouspeoplesday2016 #ethnocide #genocide #endcolumbusday #nomorecolumbusday #stolenLand #justice #truth #turtleisland #columbusday2016 #terrorism #terrorist #colonialism #decolonizetheworld #decolonizeYourself #endcolinialism #colonization #decolonizationNow #decolonization

Dear @pepperdine University, This unnamed activist's impromptu amendment to your campus's statue of the infamous Christopher Columbus should be made permanent. It is no longer acceptable in this day and age to pay uncritical homage to this man who committed the unspeakable atrocities of genocide and slavery against the #indigenous Arawak. The celebration of his legacy is the celebration of his crimes, and is an affront to #indigenouslife. We as a nation can no longer tolerate the historical revisionism that exalts his "discovery" of already inhabited lands. Christopher Columbus was a murderer and the antithesis of greatness, and his true legacy of death and destruction needs to be addressed whenever possible. Please seriously consider this simple addition to this shameful statue, and help lead your student body towards a critical discussion of our collective history. Sincerely, Bosco Jones Forty Three #indigenouslivesmatter #stopcelebratinggenocide #iwillnotcelebratecolumbus
