peeps who are stating here road blocks don't help are no allies. neither here nor in society at large.
maybe the same ones who are out there agreeing with the racists who want to continue stealing FN land and resources instead of calling them on it.
rail line gets blocked here all the time 'cause of avalanches or rock falls. and omg in the busy season...too. how dare mother nature close the rail lines its Christmas!!!!!!!! ffs
like the poor busnesses are more important than First Nations and their rights or what? like what are people thinkin when they say shit like that?
Well said, quizzical, and well worth repeating.
It's very interesting that settlers, who have denied Indigenous peoples' rights for 500 years, would now take an interest in lecturing them as to how best to win those rights - by being cool, calm, civilized, don't rock the boat. This is not the advice of an ally. And it's the same kind of "advice" that students and workers and women get whenever they become too "uppity".
