Guess who has now been restricted from posting on facebook for 3 days because as soon as I posted on @facebookapp@Meta I was restricted again for posting an update about our #Comanche wordle… #EndangeredLanguage
…I included 1 sentence in Comanche on the 3rd post (“Someone is smart”) & it was flagged as solicitation of sexual activity. I am posting about Comanche, a CRITICALLY ENDANGERED LANGUAGE with fewer than 10 speakers, & sharing resources for our tribal members. #IndigenousMe

Had to break out the bird account to say @Meta and @facebookapp keep tagging my posts about the Comanche Language, a critically endangered language, as sexual solicitation. Your review team “works in many languages”, right. Not mine. #comanche#endangeredlanguage#IndigenousMe
We, like many other Indigenous languages in the world, have been impacted by colonialism & we are fighting with every breath we take to recreate our speaking communities and cultural activities, in some cases with fewer than 10 birth speakers and sometimes, no speakers left.
