happy ( ? ) pride
in the tags write if you stay in pjs/sweats or get dressed even if you aren’t leaving the house
society if butches were represented nearly as much in media as some people seem to think they are
not to add to the doom posting, but:
the ICWA protects Native children from being adopted out of their communities, and it’s under fire bc a white couple is suing on the basis that it’s “racial discrimination” that they can’t adopt a child away from her family, (Brackeen v. Haaland). it’s probably not going to end well.
I encourage you to do your own research, but the point of this post: the Lakota People’s Law Project is assembling a brief, and coordinating with other legal teams on this, including working with the original author of the ICWA.
i’ll put source links in the replies so i can keep them up-to-date.
biphobes are like "It's disgustingly misogynistic to base a woman's entire identity around men/her relationship with a man and assume that all things she does is for men and that she has zero identity outside of the men around her. but it's perfectly fine to do that to bi women of course ❤️"
Maybe this is harsh but honestly, it feels like a lot of tribal enrollment requirements are actively punishing people for forced assimilation, especially when enrollment requires having an enrolled parent.
One generation is all it takes. One person who decides not to enroll for their own safety, who decides not to enroll their children for their safety, and enrollment is now permanently out of the reach of that family.
Idk, it just feels. . . cruel, I guess. Same with age cut offs. What are you supposed to do when your tribe's enrollment cut off is barely past adulthood but your parent(s) refused to enroll you or you didn't find out you weren't enrolled (or that it was even an option) until you were an adult? Are you just fucked forever?
