It’s weird how quiet non-LGBT people are about October 8

Supreme Court sets Oct. 8 to hear whether workers can be fired for being LGBT

I am not a lawyer, just a legal mediator who has worked in a couple fields federal law-adjacent. But it nevertheless really struck me as fucking bizarre that, particularly when marriage equality was made federal law, there was not also a push for sweeping federal employment law reform protections for LGBT+ folks.

Seemed like a huge oversight - seriously, you can get married in every state, but, what? You can also then legally lose your employment if your boss sees you have a same-sex spouse when file with HR to get them on your insurance? How the fuck does that make sense?

Went to the Aboriginal artifact exhibit in Chicago. And it’s interesting. How many blankets and masks and totem poles say ‘unknown source’, because every five seconds my mom would stop and point to something and say. “Pauline’s grandmother made that,” or, “That belongs to Mike’s family, I should call him” because. It’s all stolen

“These artifacts were excavated by archaeologists from a burial site in the 1970’s. The remains were returned for reinterment” Okay cool, cool cool. So you just, like. Dug up the grave of a respected family member, stripped them naked, mailed their body back to their family and kept everything they were lovingly put to rest in. Like a graverobbing bastard

Reminds me of the time when of the elders from my hometown started touching a totem pole in the Museum of Anthropology out at UBC and got yelled at by the staff, only to tell him that the pole had been stolen off of the front of her bighouse when she was ten years old.

Museum collectors did the equivalent of kidnapping a family member when they were away fishing.

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act requires all institutions that receive federal funding to repatriate remains and artifacts so if you can identify the source of something on display absolutely get a hold of that institute’s repatriation office
