Not to treat privilege like a scarlet letter. But it's just like I want ppl to be reminded that the act of not needing mutual aid is a privilege that many in this economy don't have. They don't have a choice to just not get needs met. Or that ends in social death and actual death.
No new donations. Help a Native family who's been patient , pulling resources with inlaws for 5 years, waiting on Tribal housing list for yrs, to get vehicle repaired! ♥
It's been 5 years since we were displaced to So's homelands in CA, after the eviction from my ancestral homelands in St Paul, we been staying with inlaws, and we finally have an opportunity to move towards building upward mobility, if we can get repaired.
Couple years ago we tried to fundraise for the repair and the campaign was a flop. Please help us as we have been patiently waiting for years for financial stability and pulling our resources. Please don't let this gfm flop!
sigh* Hate to do this but our vehicle insurance (for this vehicle we're trying to get repaired) just sprung a renewal fee on us. My savings are at zero. Have to raise $60 asap to stay insured.
Colonizers fixate on "hard work" and ad hominem attacks about laziness because it allows them to subvert the fact that it's colonizers extracting and devaluing labor.
But again, this is why I'm always citing SOCIAL MOBILITY. How justice for restored material conditions through upward mobility for Natives and others impacted by colonialism, is more important than saviorism (aka paternalism).
@GreenSkyOverMe I'm in the US amd admittedly I never drank coffee until midway through college. Only ever drank out of necessity for all nighters. Then again after I had kids. Then I over did it and had a reaction to accidentally drinking "jolt" coffee for truckers at the gas station and thought I was gonna die, so I rarely drink coffee.
