Five Ways Native American Communities Honor Turkeys Some Indigenous peoples in the U.S. Southwest have a long relationship with turkeys, which they use for their feathers, eggs, meat, and more.

Lots of ignorance about Turkeys, including their domestication, why they are named Turkeys, how many species of Turkeys there are and their distribution across the Americas. Remember Benjamin Franklin wanted Turkeys as the USA National symbol for a reason? www.sapiens.org/archaeology/...

The fact that 12% of federal judges are Black shows the corruption of DEI. The fact that 67% of Supreme Court Justices belong to a small legal cult called the Federalist Society shows the power of meritocracy.

IJA releases Indigenous Identity reporting guide – IJA

After I got off the interview, I remembered that I should have answered Matt Galloway's pressing question, "What can media do differently," by also plugging the new Indigenous Journalist Association (IJA) Indigenous Identity Reporting Guide. An excellent resource for the media.

I worked on the BBC/Time Life magazine and tv series The British Empire back in the 70s, critics then said it was β€œsadistic, focusing heavily on violence and presenting a "slanted" and "unbalanced" view that some felt was a "travesty" of history. They didn’t like the truth then and don’t now!

As a son of Appalachia, I understand the opioid crisis better than anyone. That's why I'm proud to stand with the Honduran president who delivered drugs to needy Americans with such efficiency.

Film about declining caribou herds to premiere at Whistler festival Luke Gleeson insists all he is trying to do is start a conversation.Gleeson, a member of Tsay Keh Dene Nation in British Columbia, is not only one of the writers but he also produced and directed the ...

β€œWe're just trying to get a conversation started… a lot of land-based stories, they tend to be hidden from the public lens. I don't think people really understand some of the obstacles we’re facing in the north.”

Weather it’s Joe Biden pardoning kids who were caught with a couple ounces of weed or Donald Trump pardoning the Honduran president who smuggled in 400 tons of cocaine, both presidents were soft on drugs.

We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

If they hated that, they'll really loathe Civilisations: Rise & Fall, with its lessons from history that isolationism, hostility to outsiders, social inequality and lack of contingency planning for natural disasters (e.g. epidemics) spell doom for mighty empires.

How predictable and misleading. I thought the series was great for many reasons, from featuring Indigenous peoples in their own words, multiple languages, and its way of connecting huge political change to individual stories. Radically different, and better, than any previous BBC series on empire.

Welp, was a bit tougher on this class because we discuss racism. I speak of how it is in SK., and why we are not really seeing hope of reconciliation if truth is not honored first. Two white girls kept giggling while I spoke of our dead loved ones. Teach your kids better, people. πŸͺΆ
