Missed our dive into contemporary poets whose work embodies the ocean as connective tissue in the Pacific? 🌊 From Chamorro to Māori voices, their words keep the tides alive. Catch up here 👇
#OceanPoetry #PacificVoices #OceanHoptimism
Marshallese poet Kathy Jetñil-Kijiner centers ocean, atolls, & survival in a time of rising seas. Her poems & performances carry Pacific colonial pain, resilience, & climate justice, making poetry a vessel for both grief & hope.
#ClimateJustice #PacificVoices #OceanPoetry
It’s not too late for American Samoans to choose a different path. Permanent protections, community-driven stewardship, and leadership rooted in Pacific values can still turn the tide. #OceanHope #PacificVoices
Over 70% of American Samoans backed the GOP in the last election. Now this administration is opening their waters to seafloor mining. This is what elections decide: not just leaders, but the fate of the ocean itself. #OceanJustice #PacificVoices #DeepSeaMining
Deep-sea mining in U.S. Pacific waters is a stark reminder: this isn’t a partnership, it’s extraction without consent or representation. It echoes centuries of empire, where power ignores people and profits override communities. We must name it and stand against it. #Colonialism #PacificVoices
Live on the mainland? Support territories by staying informed, amplifying local voices, flooding feeds with the truth, punching up not sideways, and backing their right to self-determine how their seas & resources are used. #OceanJustice #PacificVoices #DecolonizeTheOcean
Colonial authority means claiming the right to take, no matter the cost. Here, it’s deciding which seas are “worth” keeping whole and which can be stripped for someone else’s gain. #DeepSeaMining #OceanJustice #PacificVoices
Deep-sea mining risks: sediment plumes that smother coral, noise that harms whales, species loss before they’re even discovered, and threats to cultural practice that depend upon an intact, healthy ocean. These harms fall hardest on local communities. #SeabedMining #OceanJustice #PacificVoices
From Guam to American Samoa, these aren’t empty seas. They’re homelands, food sources, cultural anchors, treated by Washington as resource banks to tap without consent. #PacificVoices #OceanJustice #Colonialism
Important read, but let’s be clear: Tonga isn’t just a pawn in a global chess game. We deserve transparent, sovereign foreign policy shaped by our values, not fear. 🇹🇴 #Tonga #PacificVoices #ForeignPolicy #Geopolitics #KanivaTonga

Palau deserves more than to be someone else’s frontline.
Environmental threats, sovereignty, and economic futures should be shaped by Palauans, not Washington or Beijing.
Support real self-determination.
That’s what solidarity looks like.

Using a “talk story” approach (talanoa), Pacific scholars shared what holds them back: lack of time, funding, mentorship, and a system that undervalues Indigenous knowledge.

Hafa adai bsky! There is one week left to speak out against the push to advance deep-sea mining in American Samoa. As a U.S. territory, American Samoa lacks the political leverage to oppose this federal action alone. Please support #PacificVoices #OceanJustice
