today is indigenous peoples day and it’s a great day to give to the sovereign bodies institute
it’s a database and info hub for missing and murdered indigenous women. it’s trans inclusive and doing vital work.
i kicked them 10bux. i’m not telling you this because i want to humblebrag about how performatively woke i am, but because there’s research to suggest that the more visibly common/popular an act is, the more likely other people will do it.
as usual, thanks to @the-blackfoot-contessa for the rec
Thank you! The sovereign bodies institute is a great organization that does critically important work that crosses colonial boundaries. Donations this month will go towards a healing house in Peru that is specifically dedicated to meet the needs of Indigenous women recovering from forced sterilization. They also work with Black women on the Uniting Against Femicide Project to address MMIW and missing Black women and girls.
