so that was okay?

Spin the wheel again. That’s who’s trying to protect you.

Heres a not so friendly reminder, as an lgbt metis person, i dont give a single fuck what your blog is themed or if this is too painful for you to look at. Reblog this post. Reblog this post with the sources of the 751 children who were found.

Your compliance and silence as well as the compliance and silence of your ancestors is what allowed these schools to open and kill first nations children. The children of MY people.

Dont follow me if you cant reblog this post or the one with sources to your political blog or your most popular blog. Add trigger warnings if you must but if your political blog is only focused on the harms you personally face like being lgbt then you need to see some bigger pictures and stop being afraid of angering your racist mutural or actually saying some shit about racism. If you can reblog some antifa graphics or add blm to your bio to be a surface level ally, you can reblog some sources on the genocide first nations people faced and still face today.

They were CHILDREN.

I’d like to add this photo I took last night in Victoria of the statue of Captain Cook. Though I myself am not indigenous, I 100% agree that these murderers, kidnappers and rapists shouldn’t have huge statues and plaques that decorate them and say how “great” they were.

Here’s another photo of the legislative assembly from yesterday. Later on there were more items, candles and signs at the memorial, as well as a big poster with 1505 painted on it but I didn’t get a picture

People need to see this. Not just quickly glance at the photos and keep on scrolling. They need to see this.

I went to a “Cancel Canada Day” event and burst into tears - not because I was surprised to learn of the unmarked graves (survivors told us they were there. Our government pushed it aside, and we let them), but because seeing all the people gathered in mourning drove it home: They. Were. Children.

This is my country’s legacy - and it’s not history. The last schools closed during my lifetime. My Father went to school with students who lived at the local residential school, after it was changed to a boarding house (read: holding centre) for indigenous youth who went to local schools.

EDDIE "pretty boy" DIAZ

[ID: eight gifs of Eddie Diaz in 8.07. He is sitting on the edge of the firetruck with Hen while Buck stands nearby, all three of them looking at Hen's phone at a video of Bobby fighting with Brad on TMZ's website.

GIF 1: Eddie looking up at Bobby off-screen knowingly.

GIF 2: Eddie grinning at Bobby behind Hen's phone while she shows Bobby the video on TMZ's website.

GIF 3: Eddie leaning forward to ask Bobby a question.

GIF 4: Eddie peering over at Hen as she talks, smile widening.

GIF 5: Eddie scrunching up his face while he, Hen and Buck put on an exaggerated, awful British accent to mock Bobby's insult to Brad from the video.

GIF 6: Eddie laughing with his nose scrunched up as he tilts his head knowingly at where Hen is holding the video up as proof while Bobby tries to protest.

GIF 7: Eddie holding his hand out as he talks to Bobby, offers a word of advice.

GIF 8: Eddie standing up, looking at Brad offscreen behind Bobby with a stunned expression. He pulls his phone out and sneakily starts recording behind Bobby's back.

She talks about how, as a kid, you learn to finish work before you can play and that you take this with you into adulthood. So you keep the mindset of having to finish 'have to' tasks/chores before being allowed to 'play'.
