Rez Natives deserve basic amenities

Rez Natives deserve basic amenities

REZ NATIVES DESERVE BASIC AMENITIES

DESERVE

BASIC

AMENITIES

[cree-bird-deactivated20171210]

and they honestly deserve it WITHOUT having to relocate themselves, their family, and their WHOLE community. 

[fabriquer-en-jamaique-deactivat]

Or neglecting part of their identity or culture

[creativenative1981-deactivated2]

Or being judged for taking money or resources they are already owed.

here, have some wilted asparagus at the cheapest low quality grocery story

[seventh-gen-moon]

THIS is why i get so angry when non-natives say, “just go to the grocery store! you don’t need to hunt such and such animal bc of _______ bullshit reason!” Like NO. it’s not as simple as that. going to the store ? this is what you see ^^^^ please educate yourself. I am so very tired of the ignorance and assumptions that all people in america have the same basic amenities. Also stop ridiculing NDN people who hunt their traditional way on THEIR traditional hunting grounds. whatever the “problematic” animal may be. Those animals were put here by the creator FOR indigenous peoples, to live belong side us in harmony and good health, and to feed the people when the time comes. ALL ndn people of the “americas” are hunter/fathered people traditionally. respect our ways of life or GTFO.

I feel like this article is relevant here, especially with that last comment:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4787000/Alaskan-boy-bullied-social-media-whale-killing.html

Be aware that price-gouging is enourmously prevalent in Alaskan Native villages too, so here comes this young adult who goes out and kills a whale the traditional way, all to feed his village!!! ONE SINGLE WHALE.

Which by the way isn’t even endangered.

And you know what the animal rights’ activists do?

They sent him death threats.

All over a fucking NON-ENDANGERED whale.

This man is a hero in his village, he fed everyone there for days. Below-working class Alsaskan Natives who otherwise would’ve had to travel hours to get to the nearest grocery store.

Entitled vegans always say “well why don’t you just go to the store and buy fresh produce?”

Because there aren’t stores where Rez Natives live.

And if you’re lucky, you’ll find shit like the images above, you wanna pay $30 CA for some fucking asparagus???

Unless you’ve seen the Rez life and how shit is, then you need to shut the fuck up and keep your entitled shit to yourself.

And not only food. Basic amenities like properly insulated/ventilated houses. Reliable water and electric. Postal addresses that don’t require a P.O. box. And in this age I’d say internet can be considered a basic amenity that a LOT of rez native houses don’t have. Don’t get me wrong, I love talking about food. But I feel like most posts like this get bombarded with food-based discussions and miss other equally important points.

The Book of Names lists each person murdered at Auschwitz

[squishymamasboy]

#and you have to remember how many names are most likely missing#from rushed trains and burned lists#from rushed transports and people who died on the death marchs#what about the names from people who died after their liberation#and then…#this is only Auschwitz#this was the biggest camp yes#but just one of many#and then remember sobibor and belsec#and try not to feel sick

[stokerbramwell]

This is why we punch Nazis. This is why this vile ideology must be stamped out viciously every time it tries to come out of its hole.

Never. Again.
