We’re going to need to hire more staff and fellows to guarantee that we can make our vision for 2026 a reality without burning out because the work of a movement is not temporary, it’s generational.

Together, we have the power to ensure that the National Museum of the American Indian and other national museums at the Smithsonian are places that reckon with the whole truth of how we got here so we can finally make things right today and tomorrow.

The Wampanoag and neighboring Native nations in present-day New England practiced rituals of giving thanks long before they had first contact with European settlers.

One of these rituals was Cranberry Day, an annual Wampanoag holiday to celebrate the cranberry harvest.

Even the story of the first Thanksgiving meal between Native Americans and European settlers was a myth invented by the white supremacist faction during the mid 1800s to justify manifest destiny, a campaign of indigenous land theft across the American West. americanindian.si.edu/nk360/inform...

Earlier this year, the MAGA regime removed a report on missing and murdered Native American women from the Department of Justice (DOJ)'s website.

This is just the latest example of a centuries-old effort by the wealthy, white few to whitewash our country’s history. www.newsweek.com/trump-admin-...
Trump admin removes report on missing Native Americans
The report, uncovering the violence faced by Indigenous peoples, was made due to an act passed by the first Trump administration.

The reckoning cannot stop at just the last few months and years. It must take account for the last few centuries and get at the foundation of American fascism. That means righting the ongoing wrongs stemming from enslavement, genocide & Jim Crow, so we can finally repair and stop repeating history.
