This May 5th, we demand an end to the system that profits at the expense of our communities and colonized peoples everywhere. The dehumanization, objectification and exploitation of Indigenous women, girls, and relatives must end. Imperialist racist patriarchy must end.

From here on Chumash, Tongva, Acjachemen, and Tataviam ancestral lands, we demand: NO MORE STOLEN SISTERS. NO MORE STOLEN RELATIVES. NO MORE GENOCIDE. #Week4Palestine #NoMoreStolenSisters #MMIWGR #MMIWG2S
