This is a peculiar time of year for Native people. Colonial holidays & massacres go hand-in-hand with consumerism. Two old white imperialists colonized the first two weeks of #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth . Here are Indigenous political projects you should check & support (thread):
@The_Red_Nation Podcast is nearly finished with our first run of #NativeReads, centering Oceti Sakowin (D/N/Lakota) authors. Check out the study guides, buy the books, & support Oak Lake Writers Society: https://www.oaklakewriterssociety.com/nativereads-podcast-series
We don't get paid for podcasts. The resources we gather goes towards community feeds, paying rent & light bills at our community spaces, & keeping comrades in homes. A $1/month Patreon subscription goes a long way. Plus, you get early access to episodes: https://www.patreon.com/therednation 
We have comrades & relatives holding space it down w/ @CampMniLuzahan, emergency shelter for relatives on the streets so they don't die of exposure. The goal is longterm housing. For now, they need firewood & supplies. Donate here: https://www.campmniluzahan.org 
Our relatives w/ Warriors of the Sunrise, from the Shinnecock Nation, have setup a #SovereigntyCamp in the so-called Hamptons, their homelands. They're squaring off with some of the richest people. They need your help to get their #LandBack: https://warriorsofthesunrise.wordpress.com 
@The_Red_Nation in Tiwa Territory has slowed down but still distributing survival resources to relatives hardest hit by the pandemic, as part of 5 years of the #NoDeadNatives campaign. Donate directly via PayPal to [email protected].
Our relatives w/ @KeInfoshop are collecting resources for critical mutual aid in Dinetah (Navajo Nation). Donate: http://keinfoshop.org/donate/
