Nöl Collective

an intersectional feminist & political fashion collective out of Palestine

Beginning as a community-based initiative to bring people together over shared struggles, we have grown into a collective dedicated to illuminating the extremely human nature of fashion and politics. Nöl Collective is far more than just a fashion brand: We work at the intersection of feminism, Palestinian culture, ethical fashion, and social justice. At Nöl, we manufacture our apparel and accessories with small family-run businesses and women’s cooperatives across the West Bank and Gaza, supporting local production, talent, and craftsmanship.

“Full Citizenship For All Indians,” British Daily Whig. March 9, 1920. Page 06. --- New Federal Act Calls For Compulsory Enfranchisement and Education --- Ottawa, March 9. - To bring the Indian, to mature citizenship is the object of the new Indian act to be placed before parliament this session by Hon. Arthur Meighen. It provides for the evolution of the Indians from wards of the crown to responsible and independent citizens by compulsory enfranchisement and compulsory education. Both in civil life and in military effort the Indian has shown capacity for responsible citizenship and the present act will release him from hampering tribal control, and permit his acquirement of equality and independence. [AL: The Indian Act was amended in 1920 to make it mandatory for Aboriginal parents to send their children to Indian residential school. (Indian Act, 1920 s.10(1)) It was also amended to allow the Department of Indian Affairs to ban hereditary rule of bands. Further amended to allow for the involuntary enfranchisement (and loss of treaty rights) of any status Indian considered fit by the Department of Indian Affairs, without the possession of land previously required for those living off reserve.]

My father, a World War II veteran, believed he fought for the right of Americans to vote. He never missed voting in an election, and admonished me never to skip voting. I got the message. After my father died, my mother moved to Oregon and her civic activities included volunteering for election duty in Washington County. Before every election, I duly received a reminder from her to vote. I’ve…
