I’m indigenous Canadian and my family have had to deal with worse. I’ve lived most of my life fighting all the time.
This isn’t the end, it’s only another road block we have to get around. I’ve had to face down many local, regional and national elections where idiots were elected that campaigned on indigenous hate so none of this is new to me. I may not be American but seeing your latest national election made me feel bad again because whatever you guys do affects us here too.
It sucks and I hate it but the only thing that makes me feel worse is giving up.
Then don’t. Fighting for hope is overrated anyway. Fight because you’re angry. Fight because of what they took from you. Fight because this isn’t okay, no matter what anyone tells you. Fight because you don’t want to let it ever happen again.
Friend, def. not giving up. We’re all neighbors. Indeed what happens south of that imaginary line affects people north of that imaginary line. And no one should be surprised that it is the case.

I’ll live my life fighting, I really don’t care
You should too.
We lost by such an overwhelming degree. I don’t know how to have hope anymore.
they said fight, not hope
Then don’t. Fighting for hope is overrated anyway. Fight because you’re angry. Fight because of what they took from you. Fight because this isn’t okay, no matter what anyone tells you. Fight because you don’t want to let it ever happen again.
Just don’t stop fighting. Don’t give up.
What is born each night and dies each dawn?
The day?
Hope
