This Indigenous Peoples Day please speak up: another typhoon sweeping away homes of Alaska's Natives, who, during settlement (statehood: 1948) were forced to end ways of life (like my Grandma's) involving mobility across regions & stuck them in flood-prone/unstable villages with housing deficits.

These are mostly indigenous communities in Alaska that have been slammed by the storm.

The local manager of a small airline fleet says he is the only one doing evacuations right now!

Defund FEMA and people are abandoned. Defund public media and no-one knows.

FYI, today is Indigenous Peoples Day.

Flooding seen with water up to the crash barriers of local roads

Sheds and debris lie scattered in the storm

A typhoon hit the west coast of Alaska and several homes and communities have been washed out. Most of the communities are indigenous, so…no press coverage.

They also can’t count on FEMA.

Sad and ridiculous.

I am seeing a lot of people reposting Lakota Man today bc it's Indigenous Peoples Day. A reminder that he is not well liked amongst many (most?) Natives on social media. Many of us blocked him a long time ago. Some of the reasons why are in this article.

Who is LakotaMan, the user behind one of the most popular Native American accounts on X?

John Martin is adored by white X users—but infamous among Native and Indigenous communities.

It’s days like today I get so PISSED at billionaires (esp Elon) for destroying the Native Twitter community we spent a DECADE growing w/ the snap of his gross fingers

We had such a platform. Enough that we could bring awareness, coverage, care, action to those that needed attention — like Alaska rn

On this Indigenous Peoples’ Day - a reminder to @sendansullivan.bsky.social Sen. Murkowski & Rep. Begich - the #climatecrisis is hitting us hard! We need #FEMA, essential air travel services, #PublicMedia, #Science for monitoring weather. This Administration is actively harming Alaskans. Do better!

Wind damage reports coming in from the western Interior, including downed trees and power lines and building roof damage at Koyukuk. Winds so strong at Huslia that boats were pushed out into the Koyukuk River. #akwx #Autumn2025

Los Angelians: you have a responsibility, today on Indigenous Peoples Day, to shine light on the typhoon that just ravaged Alaskan villages & rally to provide care, support, & coverage of the devastation.

The world showed up for us when we had the fires. We were lucky to have FEMA-Biden. Speak up!
