NO MORE STOLEN SISTERS! For far too long the high number and rate of missing and murdered indigenous women, girls, two-spirit, & trans has gone largely ignored. Here are some facts about violence against Native Women: they are murdered at a rate 10X higher than the national average. 96% of rapes are perpetrated by non-Native men, but non-Native offenders are rarely prosecuted on tribal lands. Cases of missing and murdered indigenous woman often go underreported and untracked.
This is unacceptable. We must continue to educate and raise awareness on this crisis to help amplify those voices who are seldom heard. Lets honor their lives and memories by continuing to push for visibility, change and action for all future generations! #MMIWG2ST Lets keep moving forward! ✊🏽🤍 Resist! Persist! Repeat! #MMIWGActionNow #NoMoreStolenSisters #MMIWG #NIWRC #neverforgotten 📸 by @adamvillasenor @yellowstone @nicsheridanofficial

Today we celebrate Indigenous People’s day. My hope when I think of the future and all future generations is that all of us collectively as brothers and sisters sharing this beautiful world can all begin to start focusing on the things that bring us together as human beings rather then the things that divide us, then we can all truly begin to rediscover our humanity. With that in mind… I want to reflect on the history of colonization, land, language and cultural identity. I truly believe in order to have a clear understanding of your future and where you are headed, you need to have a clear understand of your history and past in order to not repeat the same mistakes. Rosemond Pettigrew, board president of Pouhana ‘O Na Wahine, a grass-roots collective of Native Hawaiian women advocating against domestic and sexual violence, said “land is considered family, and not being connected to it severs Native Hawaiians from their past.” It is sad to see the high numbers and rate of missing and murdered indigenous women, girls, two-spirit, & trans being largely ignored. We must continue to educate and raise awareness on this crisis to help amplify their voices to be heard and NEVER forgotten. Lets continue to honor their lives and memories today by continuing to push for visibility, change and action for all future generations! “Listen, honor, celebrate and amplify the contemporary experiences of Native and Indigenous voices”

Advice from the Ocean: Be shore of yourself. Come out of your shell. Take time to coast. Avoid pier pressure. Let your worries drift away. Sea life’s beauty. Don’t get so tide down on work that you miss out on life’s beautiful waves. 😂 hahaha! 🌞Sunshine is the best medicine🙌🏽🌻😉 #beach #motherearth #healthyliving
