White supremacy continues to run rampant in North America, dont let a year of hashtags & colored profile pics fool you! For Black and Indigenous folks there are no allies in the "justice" system. RCMP illegally raid & invade unceded territory while murderers roam free! #Shame

Ashley is exactly the type of leader New Democrats need to champion into positions of power! The BC NDP needs to make space for Indigenous leadership & empower grassroots organizers to advocate/implement the planet and life saving policies we desperately need! #VoteForAshley!

Genocide against indigenous peoples upholding their rights and sovereignty is so normalized in Canada that, m when videos are released of doors being taken down with axes and chainsaws by militarized RCMP, it’s not a breaking news story. That is called normalized genocide!

Thank you @riarenouf and CityNews Vancouver for covering this important story! Black British columbians deserve to learn in safe environments where they’re reflected AND respected in the curricular content. It time to teach all British Columbians Black history IS Canadian history!

Last summer, I called on the VPD Police Board to fire @ChiefPalmer because he doesn’t believe systemic racism exists in Canadian policing. Recent events prove how wrong he is, and how dangerous his beliefs are. It’s time for action! Kennedy Stewart globalnews.ca/video/rd/83b1c…
