Marty from NDN Collective interviews @kamaufranklin, the founder of @CommunityMvt and relative Mekko Chebon, Muscogee Creek Nation, Seminole to discuss the #StopCopCity movement and key demands.
@kamaufranklin at @CommunityMvt addresses both the local and global implications of #CopCity, “We say no to cop city because it’s a militarized police base which is going to harm our communities and harm our movements.”

#NoCopCity on #StolenLands
“My hope is that people can hear the voices of our Muscogee community, of Indigenous Peoples saying this is not how we existed. And in fact, our time here in these homelands proves that there is a better way to exist” ~ Mekko Chebon (Muscogee, Seminole)
Mekko Chebon shares the historical context of the Weelaunee Forest in Atlanta, GA, “This particular forest was apart of lands that were illegally signed over in an illegal treaty with the state of Georgia.” #NoCopCity on #StolenLands
