Indigenous Peoples’ Day
It’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day and we are reflecting on colonial legacies in the U.S. as well as around the world, how we play a part in it, and what we can do to celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ not just today, but everyday. Included here are some of the resources we’re using for our journey.

Celebrating Queerness 🏳️🌈
Pride fell amidst protest for racial equality, and in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Black Lives Matter is absolutely connected to LGBTQI rights because it stands for all Black lives. Community Manager Jen Brown compiled a list of resources which serves as, “a living document of links to organizations, readings, and more you can use to better advocate for and support queer & trans BIPOC.”

During a global pandemic that has disproportionately impacted Black, Indigenous, and People of Color communities, we are sickened by this country’s continued epidemic of racism and police brutality against Black folks. Here we share where you can educate yourself, make a donation, call politicians, more.
