Thanksgiving fundraising:
Because if you’re giving thanks this year, don’t forget to give (and support!) the native people who suffered for us to be here.
the Nanticoke-Lennilenape people in my state literally just need help to keep moving forward
Here’s a site for the Cherokee nation, and where to donate to their housing project
This is a wildly old site for the Cherokee cultural society of Houston, but you can always try them by phone or email
the Sovereign Amonsoquath Band of Cherokee have a donation tab for their ancestral land
Here’s the donation tab for the Museum of the Cherokee Indian, a museum dedicated to the culture, history, and stories of the Cherokee people. If you’re looking for holiday gifts, here’s their shop.
here’s the Delaware Tribe’s gift shop
The Nanticoke Tribe somehow manages to not have a donation tab anywhere, but here’s the museum if anyone’s in the area
Y’all, this was scary to find links for. I mostly went from one tribe’s page to another, and half the tabs were down and non-functional- not to be over-dramatic, but I hope everyone’s okay. I don’t know how to find new versions or homes of defunct sites, so half of these are just centralized around the people who could support their online presence.
Show your support, y’all- hell, I know that there’s a lot of posts about native people on tumblr selling stuff, so y’all have no reason not to support them tomorrow instead of throwing your money at a Black Friday sale and ruining a worker’s day.
If you or a loved one are native, and sell things, link the shop here please. Okay, that’s it, peace out
