On #IndigenousPeoplesDay the world celebrates our culture but what’s often unseen is the daily work to protect, revitalize, and honor in today’s busy society. Each day, Indigenous Peoples around the world step into a role as caretakers of the land, defenders of the waters, air, and territories while carrying forward the knowledge of balance and responsibility. We continue to dismantle the systems that threaten our sovereignty and restore that sacred relationship. #defendthesacred #protectthesacr
