There will be a series of lectures in Wake County Public Library about the history of the Tuscarora Nation of North Carolina.

It looks interesting but I won't be able to join.

LibGuides: Tuscarora Nation of North Carolina: Legacy of Survival and Sovereignty Virtual Series: Welcome!

These programs state the views of the Tuscarora Nation of North Carolina, not those of Wake County Public Libraries.

Not trying to make it heavy in here but for #footpathfriday I wanted to share this stretch of path from one of the “Trail of Tears”. According to the signs, this is one of the best preserved stretches of the Trail of Tears and it was a sobering and reflective experience to think about all of those Natives who were forcibly removed from their homes and land. It bothers me Everytime I think about it.

FEARLESS, POETIC MEMOIR from a Cree, Salish, and Métis writer tells the story not only of her own traumatic family history, but of the brutal generational oppressions that cast painful shadows in too many Indigenous lives. B PLUS

Columbus Day honors a man who brought destruction—not discovery. Indigenous Americans lived for tens of thousands of years before his arrival triggered slavery, violence, and genocide. Here’s the truth.

Gerade lese ich, daß der März Verlag Berlin dieser Tage das absolut empfehlenswerte, zwischenzeitlich vergriffene Werk "Eine Geschichte des amerikanischen Volkes" von Howard ZInn neu herausbringt. Kauf- und Lesetipp!

"In schlechten Zeiten hoffnungsvoll zu sein, beruht auf der Tatsache, dass die menschliche Geschichte nicht nur von Grausamkeit, sondern auch von Mitgefühl, Aufopferung, Mut und Freundlichkeit geprägt ist.

Wenn wir nur das Schlimmste sehen, zerstört das unsere Fähigkeit, etwas zu tun. Wenn wir uns an die Zeiten und Orte erinnern, an denen sich Menschen großartig verhalten haben, gibt uns das die Kraft zu handeln. Und wenn wir handeln, und sei es auch nur im Kleinen, müssen wir nicht auf eine große utopische Zukunft warten.

Die Zukunft ist eine unendliche Folge von Geschenken, und jetzt so zu leben, wie wir denken, dass Menschen leben sollten, trotz allem Schlechten um uns herum, ist selbst ein wunderbarer Sieg."

Howad Zinn

On Florida’s Mound Key, the Calusa people harvested deadly burrfish—fish too toxic to eat. Why? New research hints at ritual, toolmaking, or medicine—but the true reason remains unsolved.

> These are the true faces of North America. Apaches, Sioux, Cherokees, Cheyennes, Arapaho, Blackfeet, Navajos—great Indigenous nations with rich cultures and deep wisdom. Yet, history books barely mention them. Let us remember, honor, and amplify their legacy. #IndigenousVoices #NativeHistory
