when I drew this comic 3 years ago I had NO idea how far it would reach. I'm happy to finally share a corrected version with proper abbreviations, and even MORE state names of indigenous origin ♥️

however, the goal of this comic was to inspire people to do your OWN research on indigenous history. To question everything we have been taught, and everything that has been pointedly left out. This erasure, this “forgetting”, of history is not just of the past… it is happening now. - Across so-called Canada, the US, and US-occupied islands, native women are victims of murder at 10-12x the rate of non-native people, and are the most likely to go missing without being searched for by the law. - Native reservations have the highest rates of poverty in the US, with over HALF of tribal homes with no access to clean water (with more joining this list by the year) - Native people are 6-10x more likely to be unhoused than the rest of the population, and native teens suffer suicide rates higher than any other demographic. This list of modern day genocide goes on (thank you for compiling @theindigenousanarchist <3) and yet take a look at those environmental stats!

Native people manage to do SO much for the planet as a whole - thanklessly - and with all this stacked against them. Don't even get me started on kin fighting in south america. Could you imagine if there was help? #landback is resistance to genocide, and it is the key to saving our warming earth.

So look into it and the other hashtags, cuz a cartoon goose ain't a substitute for a proper education. Love to my grandparents who always kept a map of tribal territories of turtle island on their wall, to speaking on our Tsalagi & Saponi heritage. Love & solidarity forever, happy research, and happy #indigenouspeoplesday

(Also, if you care to support the artist, I'm publishing a book ! and writing another - a fantastical afroindigenous graphic novel - that I post exclusively about with tons of other art on my patreon.)

i genuinely think cheyenne would be the BIGGEST gabias supporter when she first hears about them and then will immediately take it back when she sees how insufferable they are together

THE ENTIRE WEST IS BEING PUT UP FOR SALE AND I AM BEGGING YOU TO CALL YOUR SENATORS

Trump’s budget bill has many, many things in it, but buried amongst it is the MILLIONS OF ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND FOR SALE.

This is the entirety of the Arizona state forests, the entire Cascades mountain range. Swathes of pristine desert around the national parks in Utah. On the doorstep of Jackson Hole.

THIS BILL IS BIG, BUT IT CAN BE AMENDED AND ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT PASS AS IS please.

If you have ever enjoyed the wilderness, we stand to lose it all forever.

CALLING your senators - NOT JUST IN THE WEST. ALL SENATORS, is CRUCIAL.

Outdoor alliance has a great resource for reaching out.

I don’t have a huge following but please, everywhere I have ever loved, the forests I grew up playing in, the land I got married on, is all at risk and I am begging.

You watch a TV show. You liked it. It's cancelled. You're sad. You find another TV show.

how ironic a show about how the arts are dying is cancelled after one season because it isn't popular enough

I feel like the writing of Tobias and Cheyanne in Étoile are little works of genius because Tobias is “obviously” autistic, whereas Cheyanne can come across as “eccentric” but at the end of the day, they have the same traits.

Cheyanne is difficult, and rude, and does too much. She tries to teach classes where she’s not even remotely supposed to be, she has blatant disregard for social norms, and has a VERY strong sense of justice. She asks questions instead of doing what she’s told, and pushes past people’s boundaries because she doesn’t recognize that they are there.

She leaves rooms suddenly without answering people’s questions, and most of all, look at her mother.

What’s fascinating to me is Tobias does all these things too.

As far as I’m concerned the only difference between them (in regards to their neurodivergence) is they gave Tobias a pair of headphones. And this is what flagged Tobias’ autism for a lot of people. But furthermore it shows how little awareness there is about “classic” autism presenting in women.

this is what real suffering looks like

everyone say thank you to black trans women and black trans men
