Decoration Day, now known as Memorial Day, has roots in a tradition established by Black-Americans in the aftermath of the Civil War. On May 1, 1865, the formerly enslaved, with profound gratitude for Union soldiers who fought and died for their emancipation, began commemorating that sacrifice by decorating Union graves. This remembrance and gratitude eventually gained support from communities across America.

Forced assimilation is genocide. #ICWA prioritizes keeping #Native children with their families, relatives, or tribal members.

Protect ICWA and Tribal Sovereignty!

Native children and U.S. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland are under legal attack in Brackeen v. Haaland. The powerful people behind the lawsuit include both Big Oil and the State of Texas. If their attempt to have a conservative-majority Supreme Court overturn the Indian Child Welfare Act is successful, the door will be open to the elimination of tribal mineral rights, gaming revenues, and sovereignty. Take action now to stop this attack on Native rights!

If a billionaire is asking to be regulated, then it is long past time to do so. But under no circumstance should they ever be regulated in the way they want, or by the people they choose.
