People holding a sign reading "Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day!" with a text overlay below on a tan background: "Indigenous Peoples’ Day. Celebrating more than just a day." ACLU-WA logo and arrow in neon yellow at the bottom. Graphic with a tan background with text that reads: "Showing Up On Indigenous Peoples’ Day and Beyond: At the ACLU-WA, we are committed to showing up for Indigenous Justice and Native communities throughout the year. Whether that’s supporting Native communities to pass legislation challenging racist systems, sharing Know Your Rights resources at community events, or arguing in court to preserve tribal sovereignty. Indigenous Justice can take many forms, but it isn’t exclusive to advocacy!" Graphic with a tan background with text that reads: Indigenous Justice takes many forms. Everyone can support Indigenous peoples in their everyday life. Here are a few examples: Attend Native-organized events; Buy from Native vendors; Seek out and support the work of Native artists, writers, and activists

We must demand greater accountability from police

⚖️ As the UN talks, Indigenous nations act. The Nations International Criminal Tribunal offers justice rooted in sovereign law—not colonial systems.
