thefullmetalbitch: A racist white woman in a skin-tight white dress stands with a headdress made to mimick war bonnets. Text reads, “I am a racist white girl stealing sacred objects from cultures I am privileged over. I am also presenting a hypersexualized image of native women, with additional use of Eurocentric ultra-thin beauty ideals. I am contributing to the rape and sexual assaults on native women daily. I am disrespecting cultures whose genocide I benefit from. I AM THE FACE OF WHITE FEMALE PRIVILEGE.”

Last year, I went to nimaamaa’s rez(North western Ontario), and somebody took my camera and took pictures of the prices of food. I thought it would be interesting to post them here. Whenever somebody assumes that people who live in reserves “have it great”, I always think back to how high the prices of food is; Food is damn expensive in the rez.

HOLY FUCK THESE PRICES ARE NOT EVEN LOGICAL

This is absolutely disgusting.

I was reading an article during my politics class about how the food prices are five times the amount in our grocery stores because they are flown in. Most of the people on the reservation of Kashechewan live on welfare and in order for them to eat healthy, they have to spend all of their monthly welfare check on the groceries. This is why most people stick to unhealthy food. It’s a never-ending cycle. For all the people who say that most Natives should just cheer up and be happy that they live on a reservation, this is why they are not.

lickypickysticky: lysergicacidiethylamide:ver2go: The chief Raoni cries when he learns that brazilian president Dilma released the beginning of construction of the hydroelectric plant of Belo Monte, even after tens of thousands of letters and emails addressed to her and which were ignored as the more than 600 000 signatures. That is, the death sentence of the peoples of Great Bend of the Xingu river is enacted. Belo Monte will inundate at least 400,000 hectares of forest, an area bigger than the Panama Canal, thus expelling 40,000 indigenous and local populations and destroying habitat valuable for many species - all to produce electricity at a high social, economic and environmental cost, which could easily be generated with greater investments in energy efficiency. (snipped because i am never a fan of the guilting) Cara Dilma,You need to sometimes take your head out of your ass and see what you’re doing, woman.Thank you,Me. This is absolutely crushing.

Cara Dilma,
You need to sometimes take your head out of your ass and see what you’re doing, woman.
Thank you,
Me.

This is absolutely crushing.

“”The hardest ones are the kids. The deaths are disturbing but so are the funerals,” he says. “At the funerals you see the glamorised attention they get. They’ve got their names written all over the windows in honour of this kid because he took his life. Kids see that. Kids want attention. This is how they’re going to get attention. I’ve heard them say: when I go, I hope that’s how they honour me.” In fact, Native Americans teenagers are more likely to kill themselves than any other minority group.”

Fascinating as it is gut-wrenching.
