Here in Canada, June 21 is Indigenous Peoples Day. A few suggestions for how you can observe today:

Search your home on the Native Lands map and learn whose land you're sharing. I live on Semiahmoo land, outside Vancouver, BC.

Find your local water and land defenders and figure out how you can support them, whether with your money, resources, or your body.

Learn the first names of your local landmarks. I live in view of Mount Baker, so named for one of George Vancouver's lieutenants. The Nooksack people, who live nearby, call the mountain Kweq' Smánit.

Pay your rent. As an Anglo settler, I acknowledge the land, and I pay for the privilege to live here. I make a monthly contribution to the Nii’kinaaganaa Foundation, who redistributes that money to Indigenous projects across Canada. It's not a lot, but it's my commitment to land back.

Read the 94 Calls to Action (PDF). It's been 10 years now since Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission ended. Only 15 of the 94 recommended actions have been completed.

One big advantage of literary fantasy over more visual media is that you can hide completely batshit worldbuilding in plain sight. Like, yeah, what this setting calls "elves" are actually grey aliens, like from UFO folklore, but it takes thirty chapters for the reader to get enough information to piece that together because none of the viewpoint characters particularly remark upon it. Why would they? Elves looking like that is normal for them.

In the olden days if you wanted to eat pizza, you had to listen to some nerd play the organ while you ate.
