How does settler environmentalism enact this violence?
Settler environmentalism reacted to Tagaq's #sealfie with violence, intentionally gendered and questioning her fitness as a mother.
Tagaq asked, has anyone ever visited my community?
Fair question. As a settler environmentalist, what is your relationship with Indigenous people?
Do you have one?
That means separating us from the land.
Btw, my son lives to remind you that urban spaces are Indigenous land too.
Opposition to Indigenous hunting is filled with racist attacks hiding behind the language of environmentalism
What is the intention having gained this knowledge? What is your responsibility to it? How can you respond.
Given the principle of non interference, what is my role as an ally if I disagree with an Indigenous person?
Jen responds with ideas about multiple truths, worldviews coexisting, being respectful. Being comfortable with this tension.
I'm imagining @MOHAWKEMOTIONS telling the ally to stay in her lane and accept the Indigenous position.
