In a community assembly, the Indigenous Ayuujk residents of Mogoñe Viejo, Oaxaca, decided to rebuild a resistance encampment on the path of the neoliberal Interoceanic Corridor megaproject in the northern part of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.

The Native Nation with the most representation on Mastodon/Fediverse is:

• Chahta/Choctaw Nation (9%, 8 votes)
• Mvskoke/Muscogee Nation (50%, 45 votes)
• Tsalagi/Cherokee Nation (20%, 18 votes)
• Another Native Nation (20%, 18 votes)

Cultural appropriation is not just a microaggression; it has *real financial harm* for our communities when we have to compete with artists who claim to be Native but aren't.

Falsely advertising your products as made by a Native artist when they aren't is also illegal under The Indian Arts and Crafts Act (IACA) of 1990 (P.L. 101-644).

If you want to support our communities and art make sure not to buy anything "Native-inspired" from Etsy or any other site.

Cowichan Tribes to vote on a law reclaiming full authority over child and family services

Members of the Cowichan Tribes are about to embark on a historic vote, that if passed, would see the Cowichan Valley First Nation implement its own law. That law would reclaim full authority over child and family services.

' Often, when we give a blank map of the surrounding areas to Inuit who are helping us [they] have no problem recognizing and identifying features on the map, going only from their recollections of the land and what their families have described to them in words or in songs — without otherwise having used maps. They’ll even correct you, explaining something like, “there should be a lake there, but it’s not on your map.” '

Mapping traditional place names in Canada’s North

The staff of the Inuit Heritage Trust is racing across Canada’s North to document traditional Inuit place names before much of that knowledge passes on with the elders who hold it. Canadian Geographic sits down with lead researcher Lynn Peplinski.

Good morning. Here’s a quote for today. What’s the most important park of the quote? Mine is is in the reply. I’ll do a conversation topic post tomorrow. 😊

@stim And I like that #CANADALAND really does cover stories that aren't covered elsewhere - especially about the news media itself. And #indigenous news and #journalists.

I'm not sure that #Mastodon will ever be able to provide as powerful a platform for breaking news as the #BirdSite did: it is contrary to Mastodon's fundamental vision to force a single news thread into everyone's face, the way the BirdSite does.

But I've been thinking, maybe that's for the best in the long run.
