HUGE NEWS!! THE SUPREME COURT JUST HAD A MASSIVELY IMPORTANT RULING THAT RESULTED IN NEARLY HALF OF OKLAHOMA BEING RETURNED TO THE NATIVES!

HERES AN ARTICLE ABOUT IT

[tsitsho]

So! I see a lot of the notes saying weird shit about how this is "misleading" or that it's not "actually being given back" and I want to say:

Those takes are incorrect.

This is, at its very core, the basis of land being returned to us. We don't want to make all white people/non native people leave the land or whatever. This is just step one, but it's also important to recognize that this is fundamentally what the LandBack movement has been trying to achieve. As far as I can tell? This is the first step to granting Indigenous people autonomous control over our own nations and land once more. I don't know much about how US law works, but I'm intimately aware of the aim and goals of the Indigenous (read: my) community.

So: please listen to actual native people on this. So so many of us have been sobbing tears of joy over this, crying and being in shock, because we can barely believe that we got SUCH an incredible and major win. This is what we want. Do not write over that with your white misinterpretations of what it is we mean by Land Back.

Niá:wen, listen to natives, have a nice day.

By focusing only on a young girl’s physical appearance, what we are actually saying is this is what society values most about you.

Even in death you cannot respect a woman enough to use her name. How disgusting.

[canecadet]

Jesus fucking Christ. She was a real life WARRIOR and the only thing these people value is her physical aesthetic. You have got to be fucking kidding me.

[amorphousrex]

I cannot fucking believe this, she was a 19-year-old Kurdish woman with a name. NINETEEN-fucking-years-old and she led an all-female battalion against known ISIS groups in Syria, and they comment on her appearance before her rank, her age and don’t even use her fucking name? RIP Asia Ramazan Antar, you will be remembered.

[ephitania]

So disrespectful. 

RIP Asia Ramazan Antar, you will be remembered.

My coworkers complain when we can’t assign homework over Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. As if somehow this interferes with their ability to teach their classes.

My coworkers complain that our Muslim students get to leave class to pray Salat at noon. Like, we have maybe one Muslim student every two or three years - thus far, all extraordinarily respectful and lovely kids! - and they slip quietly out of class to pray.

My coworkers find all this infuriating. “Imagine,” they cry, “If a Christian kid asked to do that.”

I calmly explain, every single time, that a Christian kid would never HAVE to do that, because every single Christian holy day is a day off school. Good Friday. Easter Sunday. Christmas day. Our entire country interrupts its financial and educational systems - schedules its WEEKS - around the Christian prayer customs and seasons.

God forbid we temporarily unclip the rope barrier and leave an opening for someone whose religious traditions vary from our own.
