In honor of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, NJP celebrates and uplifts Native American communities statewide, and invites you to reflect on today. Indigenous Peoples’ Day, at its core, aims to celebrate and honor the past, present, and futures of Native peoples throughout the United States and acknowledges the legacy of colonialism, which has devastated Indigenous communities historically and continues to negatively impact them today. This holiday expressly replaces Columbus Day, and the substitution is in and of itself important to reflect on. As activism has surged against racism, movements have toppled monuments that perpetuate a false history of the United States and torn down the narratives that they support. These are monuments that were erected to honor and further colonization by depicting a narrative of white racial superiority and domination. So instead of honoring a brutal slaver and genocider today, crediting this man with “discovery” of a place already well known by its many residents and a place that he didn’t even actually reach, celebrate contemporary Native peoples and renounce symbols of white supremacy. Celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day by: - Supporting Native American representation in media, education, and all levels of government - Centering and amplifying Native voices - Prioritizing learning about Native American communities and histories from the teachings of Native Americans about themselves #NWJusticeProject #LegalHelp #WashingtonState #IndigenousPeoplesDay #IndigenousPeoplesDay2023 #IPD #Native #NativeAmerican
