Women in America are going missing, but because they are Native, mainstream media gives them little coverage. These women need our help:

Native cultures are not interchangeable.
Every single Native culture is distinct and unique, though many share similarities, and lumping them together is ridiculous. And while some practices are pan-Indian, the vast majority are not.
Kokopelli isn’t “Native American,” He’s Hopi.
Dreamcatchers aren’t “Native American,” they’re Ojibwe.
War bonnets aren’t “Native American,” they’re Plains Indian.
Wendigoag aren’t “Native American,” they’re Algonquian.
Totem poles aren’t “Native American,” they’re Northwest Coastal Indian.
Skinwalkers aren’t “Native American,” they’re Navajo.
Stop homogenizing our cultures. Every Native culture is beautiful and unique and deserves to be treated that way.
Don’t fall into the trope of “pan Indian”. Fucking teepees and totem poles never existed together. Totem poles are permanent structures, teepees are fucking tents for nomadic peoples. First Nations and indigenous cultures are all deep and uniquely complex, it would be like confusing England with Russia.

Spider-Man effortlessly snagged the canteen from the air and took a swig before handing it to Spider-Woman.
“Ew, did you backwash?” Spider-Woman squinted, though good-naturedly.
“Our DNA is virtually indistinguishable,” Spider-Man grumbled. “Pretty sure we have the same germs.”
As Namia ramped up the speed, and Ben Tennyson hung on for dear life, green eyes a little wider than they got whenever Kevin got into a particularly hairy car chase, the Spiders kept pace with seeming effortlessness.
…though they were breathing a little harder than expected when they got there. It really had been a long day and they’d spent part of it in space.
She untangled herself from the space boy and he jumped down, then she dismounted and let her hat fall back again.
“Door’s unlocked.” she waved toward the house. “Take your shoes off. Radio’s in the front corner next to the door. Facilities are at the back passed the kitchen. Don’t eat all my food, boy.” She figured the space boy knew who she was talking to.
“I need to get Damia settled then I’ll be in.”
What came before the glimmering retch of concrete over the mud? Before the jazz, the sprinklers in the summer? Through the lens of popping, a funk-based stre...
Such an eye-opening collaboration by Last Real Indians. WHAT CAME BEFORE is a must-watch. Check out the entire video.
She sat in a circle on the grass with the little ones. They each had straightened sticks, split feathers, and string-like willow strips. Each one was focusing with the laser intensity of the very young on holding the feather on the stick while evenly wrapping the string. They were dubious that fletching was more important and much harder than actually shooting the arrows, but they applied themselves.
Misae was considered an Elder, even though she had to live apart from the People. Her status was passed along from Cheif to Cheif down through the generations. They sent the People here to her when her skills and wisdom were needed, and she loved those times.
“Unci?” the little girl in her too short jeans and tshirt with holes in it looked up from her stick.
“Yes, little one?”
“What does in...indig...indiginus mean?”
Ah, yes, that was today. The flashes of death and devastation flashed through her mind. The feelings of hopelessness, not understanding Land People actually making this kind of war against each other, not being able to stop it.
“Indigenous,” she pronounced for them all, “means people who are originally native to an area of land. When the Wah-Zha-Zhi came from the Sky, they originally settled in the Middle Waters. They were Indigenous to that area because there were no Land People there before.”
Another, older child spoke.
“Then the Whites came and killed us all and stuck us on the Rez. They suck.”
Misae sighed. Yes, from their perspective the “Whites” did “suck”.
“You, and the Whites, and the Blacks, and all the other Colors are Land People. You are the same. Don’t ever forget that, little ones. What the European Land People did to other Land People was completely wrong. It was against Nature. Just remember they are still Land People. And the rest of the Land People must try to help them remember that.”
All the little eyes were wide, looking at her. Some in disbelief, some thinking, some skeptical, but all listening. Good.
“Now. Back to your fletching. If you’re ever to hunt your dinner, you must first master your tool.”

She grinned, and wiped her mouth with her sleeve.
If it had come down to money, she could always have waved her psychic paper at a card reader.
If they had card readers in this place.
And if she remembered what psychic paper was.
“Brilliant!”
And then she was up on her feet, and dashing ahead of Misae, she walked in front of her– facing her, walking backwards, wagging a finger.
“You said that wrong, though, you don’t say come on, you say– let’s go.”
“I usually don’t say any of that because I’m usually doing this by myself.” She reached around and opened the door before Not Leslie banged into it.
“We’ll do the bookstore first so the perishables don’t perish in the back of the truck.”
Heading across the street she called “Let’s go.” over her shoulder.
Hand-colored platinum print photos of Oglala Sioux chiefs. 1899.

“What’s relativity?” the blonde woman frowned at Misae.
And then her eyes widened, like she had a light bulb over her head. “Oh! Is it relative?”
Then Misae suggested going for supplies and a visit to the bookshop, and the incandescence of the woman shifted frequencies somewhat.
A warm, happier glow rather than the blinding light of epiphany.
“Oh, yeah, cheers, luv! I dunno what it is, but I think I love a little shop!”
As she started to walk toward the door, the older woman at the counter raised her voice and called out.
“Unci?” She pointed to the bouncy alien still eating the chili.
Sighing, Misae walked over and paid for the chili.
“Thank you, Unci.” The woman smiled, and Misae nodded.
Turning back to the door, Misae resumed her exit.
“Come on if you’re coming.”
