Today 9 years ago - after the Sept. 3 #DAPL dog attacks, Native people and their allies from all around the world began flocking to Standing Rock.

UR's original on-the-ground 9/04/16 tweet text:

"100s gathering for prayer near burial sites disturbed yesterday by Dakota Access workers. #noDAPL #NativeLivesMatter"

Authors of The Resistance is elevating the story of Christian Vasquez, a seventeen-year-old Indigenous young man from Utqiagvik, Alaska.

I'm traveling so I don't have an orange shirt I can wear today but I still want to acknowledge the harm that was done to Indigenous children and their families.

Some shit cannot be fixed.

From @abearlaw on the birdsite:

"A 12 year old Indigenous boy with autism handcuffed and pinned down by Vancouver Transit Police. Imagine if his mom wasn’t there to record them, how far would they go? Canadian law enforcement treats our children like criminals. Se full video on his mom’s TikTok Mia Brown."

Hi all, I’m a web designer and digital consultant for progressive and Democratic campaigns here in Georgia USA. At night, I work in fast food (which *just barely* pays the bills) :-/

Lived in Georgia most of my life, it disappoints me too often. Trying my best.
