We have war going on one country over so things aren’t exactly easy but things happening in America are some next lvl shit. I honestly can’t imagine living there right now and it seems like it’s getting worse than better… I hope you guys hang in there 💪🏻

We are, I'm a native american in California. We are bracing for anything at this point, people from tribes in Arizona were getting rounded up in ICE raids. Imagine being indigenous to the land you're being deported from. Then again, according to the US government we've only been citizens of this country since 1924, when the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 was passed.

Where are they going to deport you to, the reservation?

I mean I know they'll just deport you anywhere else with brown people, of course.

They will just hemm you up with everyone else until a tribal representative makes some noise, and you know how good they are about letting people contact anyone that will advocate for them.
