My great-Grandfather Pleasant Luther "Duke" Berryhill & great-Grandmother Jeanetta Grayson Berryhill.
They were Roll #117 & #7144. They lived through the Dawes Commission, Tribal land allotment theft & Oklahoma statehood.
Duke was Captain of the Lighthorse & active in the Muscogee Nation Gov't in Indian Territory. He was known as extremely good sharpshooter.
Jeanetta was the last full blood in my lineage & had 5 children, my grandmother being #1.

This article is a MUST READ
Decolonization is not a metaphor
By Eve Tuck & K. Wayne Yang
โOur goal in this article is to remind readers what is unsettling about decolonization. Decolonization brings about the repatriation of Indigenous land and life; it is not a metaphor for other things we want to do to improve our societies and schools.โ

My family and I are survivors of the world's two largest genocides, and enslavement. The odds were against us big time, but #WeAreStillHere.
Accept my elder wisdom please. Do not minimize #Felon47, he's one of the most dangerous people in history. This is not a joke or a test, it's the real thing.
Trump, his administration and followers must be stopped!

Naturally like the people themselves, #Native and #Indigenous hashtags are invisible. It's just burned into colonial consciousness.
#TurtleIsland
Most hashtags are pretty obvious, you just put # in front of a topic. For example if a post is about coffee it might have the tag #Coffee
However, many popular hashtags have difficult-to-guess names, so I've started a list to help people discover them:
โก
๏ธ https://fedi.tips/fun-and-useful-hashtags-to-follow-on-mastodon-and-the-wider-fediverse
Copy-paste a hashtag into the search box in Mastodon if you want to browse or follow it.
If you have suggestions for non-obvious hashtags that should be added to the list, let me know in the replies ๐

Just a reminder, for Turtle Island subscription transactions on Patreon, use a browser rather than iOS or iPadOS to avoid the 30% Apple extortion.

Like all people and organizations when face to face with their own racism, this thought is likely to ruffle feathers, but nonetheless 100% true.
Mastodon gGmbH has a problem with systemic racism at the organizational level.
It's time to make Mastodon friendly to non-white cultures and we need to start at the top.

Many are probably familiar with how unfriendly the #Fediverse / #Mastodon is to non-white cultures.
In my opinion, if you really care about wiping out Fediverse white supremacy with actions and not just empty words... you should be following ALL https://TurtleIsland.social moderators and admins.

Led by the American Indian Center, Chicagoโs oldest Native-led organization, Indigifest is rooted in the understanding that as the Indigenous people of this land, we carry the responsibility to guide the conversation on Turtle Island about what Indigeneity means, what it has endured, and where it is going. In a city built on Native land, where Indigenous presence is often overlooked, this festival is an unapologetic reminder that we are still here.
