Some of you have never made the choice of death or dismemberment, and it shows.

Broome man accused of cable tying three Indigenous children pleads not guilty to assault
Very little media on this horrific crime. It’s clearly an inconvenient narrative when victims are Indigenous and perpetrators are non Indigenous. nit.com.au/30-04-2024/11111/…

Those half/half US/isr*** flags are so intensely cursed.
Doubling up the genocide, imperialism & colonialism in one hideous piece of polyester.

Please read this thread!!! Share if you are able!!
Don’t usually do *this* but, thread: Monday, SCOTUS debates the criminalization of homelessness. That means many folks are sounding off on the topic. I’ve spent 4 yrs covering this for @washingtonpost, and need to reality-check assumptions getting thrown around this week (1/x)

I was a child protection worker for seven yrs-with a 100% Aboriginal caseload in the Goldfields. In that time I didn’t remove one child. I also didn’t leave a child in an abusive situation. That’s because EVERY Aboriginal family came to attention SOLELY due to struggling with parenting & trauma & attachment from their own removal from family-so I proactively did everything in my power to provide the skills/intensive therapy they needed to stay together.
Aboriginal kids in a horrific 82% of cases are being removed for “neglect” -a very preventable thing-we have a system that provides no opportunities for Aboriginal families to heal-removal is a foregone conclusion once they are flagged by the system.

Been so excited for this day, and I have never been prouder or more excited to announce…well… just about anything!

Being a landlord on stolen and occupied lands means you should be demonised in the “housing debate”
And ps, Karen: it’s not a self funded retirement if we’re all out here funding your damned retirement
#QandA Highlights: Many landlords invest in housing to self-fund retirement – should they be demonised in the housing debate?

Calling #IDERD ‘#HarmonyDay’ causes harm to our collective anti-racism journey. Instead, we must meaningfully acknowledge Australia’s deep-seated issues, question the various ways racism shapes our society, and commit to efforts to eliminate racism.

Impressive and inspiring reporting. If only more fashion writing was like this
New: The story of the poor indigenous Peruvians working —sometimes even for free— helping the world’s richest person sell $9,000 vicuña sweaters

Do folks outside Indian Country know that @lily_gladstone is Two Spirit and uses she/they pronouns?
They've spoken about the ridiculousness (and importance) of the binary awards categories, and that she chose 'actress' basically out of convenience.
Please show some respect.

When watching the Osage Singers at the Oscars, my inner voice said “They’re the ones bringing us all up on stage tonight, that’s how it should be.” The history in the film and of the moment rightfully belong to the Osage Nation. What an honor to be close enough to feel the drum❤️🔥
