That's the thing. The entire land of the U.S. belongs to the Indigenous Native American Peoples - that's how I see it.

There is zero doubt I'll estimate 98% that 'country' was built on the backs of Indigenous + Black folks, with the addition of later those who use the term Brown folks.

I've heard of this conversation - branching off entirely from the 'country.' It's an interesting one because for me (I just wrote about it today), that 'country' never felt like home. As you know, I had to travel 9,000 miles away to Mama África to realize I needed to be here in Madre Borikén.

Sending solidarity + strength your way, Sis.
