Native tribes on banning Kristi Noem from reservations: β€˜She’d be charged with trespassing’ The far-right governor’s comments about Indigenous Americans have crossed a line for all nine tribes in her state

Kristi Noem as Sec. of Homeland Security? The only people secure in their homeland will be Indigenous people cause she’s been banned from stepping foot on their land! The jokes keep writing themselves…

The 'bison skull mountain' photo that reveals the US's dark history The photo of two men standing on a mountain of bison skulls is well known as a symbol of hunting during colonisation of the US. But there's a more sinister story that lies behind it.

14,000-year-old archeological find affirms Heiltsuk Nation's ice age history | CBC News An ancient settlement uncovered on B.C.'s Central Coast has been carbon dated at 14,000 years old β€” one of the oldest ever found on Pacific Northwest Coast β€” supporting the oral history of the Heiltsuk Nation.

this is cool, the Heiltsuk people in BC have oral history of settlements on the unglaciated coast during the last glacial maximum, helped guide an archeological dig at one of them, and found a hearth that dates back to 14K years ago, giving evidence to their oral history
