A MMIW2S Call to Action 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇲🇽

When a silent statistic becomes loud awareness, our RAGE is our love, and we CALL OUR NATION TO ACTION!!!~ We call onto the Canadian & American governments and powers that be, to prioritize our loved ones, our women, our men . . Us kin, now dressed in red . . We will NOT LET THEM FALL BETWEEN THE CRACKS of this land . Our home ~

With our faces painted red, and our fists in the air . . We will find justice & peace . 

We will find healing by coming together within the seed of ceremony .

We will hold each other up in prayer 

WE will not let our youth fall between the cracks, we will prioritize SAFETY AND ACTION!~ We will not let our missing women, men & 2Spirit be just yet another statistic of Indigenous in this colonial state, built on stolen land!~ AND through all we have endured . . 
WE CAN HEAL . . We can hold each other up .

It will be our culture, our songs, our medicine . . our prayers, that will bring us home to ourselves .

There is love in this soil . There is love in the legacy and memories our lost love ones have left with us .

There is home within us ~

We will fight until every one of our MMIW2S+ and men are brought to justice, and in this fight we will pray, and in our prayers there is justice, and in our prayers . . there is peace 

This is our offering up to the sky, this is our . . .

The red handprint represents the colonial violence that silences us. It’s become a powerful visual in protests, photoshoots, and awareness campaigns to honour MMIWG2S+ and to show that we will no longer be silent about this national crisis.We urge you to reach out in your local communities to see how you can help implement the 231 Calls for Justice for MMIW2S+ set out by the Assembly of First Nations ~
