A great nature film not just narrated by an Indigenous person but from an Indigenous perspective. Got to watch this film at the NAFWS SW regional conference.

Artist Georgia O'Keeffe ignored the Indigenous presence all around her in New Mexico. Now a new exhibition at the O'Keeffe Museum draws awareness to the ongoing presence of Tewa Peoples by presenting a group exhibition of Tewa artists.

Hmm...wonder if it has something to do w/the venue too. I think the NM State Fair is gonna be moved from the Expo area in the future. Some other city will probably continue GON. I've gone a few times as a kid & teen. It was affordable back then, not so much now. Got to see a lady from my rez get

Oh shoot, I remember you, Birdman!! I really didn't know your real name. Don't know why I didn't see it in your Bluesky handle 😁. You're very skilled in bird calls. My husband (also an SFIS alumni) remembers you too. He's now a teacher at SFIS. He says they always need subs πŸ˜‰

Aw, how cute! 😁. I had a vest phase too. My mom made me a lot of vests that I wore over t-shirts. I thought I looked so cool 😎. One time, this guy didn't know my name & asked me if I was "that girl who always wore vests" πŸ˜†.

Harvard hired a researcher to uncover its ties to slavery. He says the results cost him his job: β€˜We found too many slaves’ When the extent of the university’s involvement with slavery was unearthed, a scholar tracking descendants of enslaved workers was suddenly fired

SFIS 48th Annual Commencement - 5/30/25 YouTube video by Santa Fe Indian School

This is what Indigenous joy looks like. From an Indian boarding school that tried to eradicate our Indigenous culture & traditions, to several Tribes in solidarity, reclaiming the school to continue practicing our way of life for future generations. 🫢🏽 #SFIS #alumni
