This #EarthWeek, we want to bring attention to something important: Protecting the Earth does NOT have to come at the cost of tribal sovereignty.

Soon, the National Park Service is planning to designate the Big Cypress National Preserve as “wilderness”. While the intention is to increase protections for the freshwaters and fish essential to its health and the health of the neighboring Everglades, this new designation will severely limit Tribal access.

This preserve has been home for the Miccosukee people for centuries. They have stewarded its lands and waters and still live in traditional villages there. This area is home to sacred cultural sites, multiple ceremonial grounds, and burial grounds are scattered throughout.

Join us by adding your name in a message that asks the Biden Administration to honor Tribal sovereignty and protects Tribal access.

🌱✨ On this #EarthDay, we remember to honor Mother Earth everyday so that we can achieve a sustainable future for all.

This model of prioritizing the land and waters instead of money allows us as Indigenous people to keep that spiritual connection to sacred places and ensure that these same sites will be there for generations to come.

How do you celebrate Earth Day, everyday?

Today is the International Day for Monuments and Sites 🏜️

Within the United States there is 133 national monuments including Avi Kwa Ame, Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni (known to many as the Grand Canyon), and Bears Ears.

National monuments are areas or sacred sites that have been given permanent protection by Congress or the president through the use of the Antiquities Act, which was signed into law on June 8th, 1906.

We are advocating for the same protections for:
- Chaco Canyon
- Kw’tsán
- Oak Flat
- Chuckwalla

Take the time to learn about the movements around these important places and see how you can add to the advocacy!

Native Organizers Alliance joins our communities across Turtle Island in mourning the loss of actor and advocate Cole Brings Plenty (Mnicouju Lakota).

Cole was a talented young man who used his platform to advocate for the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies Act and partnered with the Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition to educate lawmakers on the importance of passing the bill.

Our communities continue to face unjust and disproportionate murders. Cole’s untimely death is being honored by raising awareness for the #MMIP epidemic with #BraidsforCole.

Please sign now at the #linkinbio to submit a public comment opposing the Magellan Pipeline ⚠️

We only have until midday tomorrow, Tuesday, April 9 to submit public comments opposing this pipeline re-route, which would threaten the sacred lands and waters around Pipestone National Monument.

Our draft public comment includes the Yankton Sioux Tribe’s Official Tribal Comments, which lay out how the 1858 treaty between the U.S. government and the Yankton Sioux Tribe reserved for the Tribe rights to “free and unrestricted use of the red pipestone quarry,” which was part of the original homelands of the Yankton Sioux Tribe.

Today is the last day of #WomensHistoryMonth and we want to uplift Allie Young (Diné) from @protectsacred ❤️✨

Allie has been involved in community from the very beginning. When COVID hit the Navajo Nation at extreme rates in 2020, not only did Allie help to ensure safety for her people but she also led several campaigns to help with that year’s election. When it was time to vote, Allie was inspired by the community’s love for rodeo culture to ride to the polls!

While the end of March is here, we will continue to uplift incredible Native women all year round 🪶
