class="content__text"@ndncollective February 14th marks the National Day of Action and Memorial for our Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives across Turtle Island and beyond. This global crisis has taken our Women, Girls, Two-Spirit, Queer and Non-Binary Relatives relentlessly, leaving families in despair and survivors in search of safe places to feel heard and protected. We must commit to listening and acknowledging the lived experiences of survivors as a means of centering the most vulnerable in our communities. The destructive influence of colonization, capitalism and misogyny have all served as catalysts for how our sacred relatives are continuously harmed and threatened into silence and shame. As these are our healers, caregivers, mothers, sisters, siblings, changemakers, lifegivers, culture-bearers and Matriarchs - our communities would not exist without them. We must continue to shed light on this global crisis, calling it out in our communities and demanding change. Today, we lift up @mmiwhoismissing , an organization that is 100% Indigenous-led and an educational voice that advocates for grassroots efforts, working directly with #MMIR families, survivors, & Tribal coalitions, laying the groundwork, socially and politically to protect our Indigenous populations from further colonial violence. Please go to the link in our bio and see the toolkits @mmiwhoismissing has complied about the complexities of #MMIR. Everyone should be aware of this information and the support that currently exists! #MMIR #MMIP #MMIW #MMIWG2S
