❗Dear , the 250th isn’t over yet! Four more chances to challenge ‘Merica’s myths ✊
What’s next?
- LABOR DAY (Sep. 7): Honor the hands that built this country and support the ones still fighting for dignity.
- INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’ DAY (Oct. 12): They came for gold. They stayed for land. They tried to erase us. But we are still here. Still thriving. Still resisting.
- VETERANS DAY (Nov. 11): They fought for a flag that never fought for them. Yet Indigenous veterans served at the highest rates. We honor them. We remember them.
- THANKSTAKING DAY (Nov. 26): They gave thanks for what they stole. But we remember. We resist. We reclaim!
Four holidays. Four reminders that the dominant narrative is a lie.
Honor the resistance. Support Indigenous creators. Wear your truth ❤️

The design uses the colors of the so-called “U.S.” flag to recontextualize historical representations of Indigenous leaders, Black Continental Army soldiers, and colonists of European descent, confronting simplistic narratives about the origin of the so-called “U.S.”
