Yesterday I went to the third annual March for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women here in Minneapolis. Today, as I do many, many days of the year, I think about Indigenous women who have disappeared, who have been killed, who daily suffer domestic and sexual abuse. Every day is a process of trying to come terms with the reality that you know more women who have been abused and assaulted than women who have not and every day is a process of trying to be a little less afraid or ashamed to say “I, too, know that pain.” Grateful for the MIWSAC and MIWRC. Grateful for Indigenous scholars like Sarah Deer. Grateful for the efforts of countless Indigenous women (men and two-spirits) who work tirelessly to bring resources to survivors and awareness to very real issue of sexual violence against Indigenous women. #mmiw #nomorestolensisters #notonemore #protectnativewomen #sexualviolenceawareness #notmyamerica #defendthesacred

Nichelle Nichols (born Grace Dell Nichols on December 28, 1932)

“For the first time on television we will be seen as we should be seen every day – as intelligent, quality, beautiful people who can sing, dance, but who can also go into space, who can be lawyers, who can be teachers, who can be professors, and yet you don’t see it on television – until now….” - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr to Nichelle Nichols
