OTTAWA #ncelnadaDay
Idle No More has lled for actions across nada on July 1 under the banner of “ncel nada Day.” In the ll, issued before the report by the Cowessess First Nation, they state “The recent discovery at Kamloops residential school has reminded us that nada remains a country that has built its foundation on the erasure and genocide of Indigenous nations, including children. They say further “We refuse to sit idle while nada’s violent history is celebrated. We are once again lling on Indigenous land, water and sky protectors and allies to come together and disrupt the celebration.”
“We will not celebrate stolen Indigenous land and stolen Indigenous lives. Instead we will gather to honour all of the lives lost to the nadian State — Indigenous lives, Black Lives, Migrant lives, Women and Trans and 2Spirit lives — all of the relatives that we have lost. We will use our voices for MMIWG2S, Child Welfare, Birth Alerts, Forced Sterilization, Police/RCMP brutality and all of the injustices we face. We will honour our connections to each other and to the Water, Land, and Sky.”
Idle No More is lling on “any individual, group or community who wants to challenge and disrupt nada’s ongoing colonialism” from coast to coast to coast to organize actions in this spirit which n include banner drops, sit ins, round dances, service disruptions, ceremonies, #Landback mps, marches and rallies. They are asking everyone to follow the COVID-19 protocols in place in their communities and encourage actions to include orange shirts, so long as it feels appropriate to do so.
