This year, @americanrivers.bsky.social placed the Lumbee River on its list of Most Endangered Rivers due to contamination from PFAS & other “forever chemicals.” See their write-up here 👇🏽.

Indigenous Constitutionalism - Harvard Law Review By standard accounts, there are fifty-four constitutions across the federal, state, and territorial governments of the United States. But in fact, there are 230 other governmental constitutions that currently govern peoples and territories within the United States. These constitutions not only flow from a sovereignty that existed prior to the United States but also came out of a legal movement that asserted its independence from both the U.S. Constitution and state constitutions. This Article tells the story of these constitutions — the constitutions of Native nations.

Honestly still in shock by its placement, but my article (and job talk paper), “Indigenous Constitutionalism,” is officially out in the Harvard Law Review. A brief thread on this project🧵

While the conversations are going; I need everyone to recognize & speak up on the fact that trump also snuck in fast tracking mining & destroying indigenous ancestral land for oil.

He is going against indigenous leaders.

This is appalling.

Indigenous people are the original inhabitants of this continent and, here in New Mexico, we live that truth every day. The fact that the Solicitor General of the United States would hesitate on our citizenship is outrageous and horrific.

This will be one of the most competitive and expensive Senate races because campaigning is different in Alaska.

It's bigger than TX, MT, and CA combined and 82% of our communities are only reachable by plane, boat, or snow machine.

Re-upping the amicus I worked on in Watson v. RNC light of today’s oral argument. The TL;DR: many Native communities lack access to mail to a severe degree most people to fathom and delayed ballot receipt deadlines are critical accommodations for those realities.

More than a third of Alaskans rely on Medicaid. We need a senator who doesn’t vote to raise their costs or kick them off their healthcare. It’s that simple.
