Show Up for Native Activists
Movements require visibility, momentum and follow-through. Indigenous Peoples are fighting for their land back, accountability of broken U.S. treaties, sovereignty, and the protection of their missing peoples and culture. They show up, day after day, and follow through on their demands and intentions. Their voices are clear when they speak about erasure and land stewardship. Visibility is where others can show up for the movements of Indigenous people through donations, amplification and literally showing up with their bodies for protests.
