Native women face some of the highest rates of violence in the country, and yet our cases are the least likely to be investigated, reported, or taken seriously. That's not coincidence, it's a system that was never built to protect us. #nativeamerican #women #redshawlday
Today is #RedShawlDay, a time to honor missing and murdered Indigenous women and call for safety and justice.

Today we honor Red Shawl Day. CSVANW stands with our relatives to raise awareness of violence impacting Native women, girls, and all our Native relatives. Wear red to honor those taken, support survivors, and stand with families seeking justice. #RedShawlDay #MMIWG2S #CSVANW #SafetyIsSacred

I missed #RedShawlDay. I will never forget hiking from a cabin in BC past a protest installed at the entrance to a mining site. The red dresses swinging from hangers were gut-wrenching. I spent the rest of a month long trip in learning about missing and murdered indigenous women at various sites.
A wooden sign reading “Denali national park and preserve” and featuring a carved caribou and a white outlined mountain is draped with a piece of red cloth on the right side. The national park service arrowhead hangs from the left side of the sign. Beyond the sign is a snow covered mountain.
#RedShawlDay at Denali (yesterday), honoring the lives of MMIWG2S.
To my knowledge, this is the first or one of very few adornments NPS has made to the entrance sign here.
(Note: I don’t work for the NPS but live in close relationship with many who do, here at Denali and elsewhere.)

Per you folks, today is #RedShawlDay, which brings attention to the acts of violence committed against Indigenous peoples, particularly women and children. During the week of November 19, people are encouraged to wear red as a symbol of the loss of blood through violence.
#RedShawlDay Indigenous women & girls face violence 10 times more than the national average. According to NIJ, 84% of Native women have experienced violence, and they are 10 times more likely to be murdered than other women. The red shawl is a symbol of strength, resilience, and remembrance.
Walrus was offline yesterday and couldn't post about #RedShawlDay , so Walrus is doing it now.
If you are not aware how much of a problem Missing & Murdered Indigenous Peoples is, or want to know more 👇.

4 out of 5 Indigenous Women experience violence. 1 in 3 are sexually assaulted. Murder is the 3rd leading cause of death for Indigenous Women & Girls. 10x higher than all other ethnicities. #MMIWG #MMIWG2S #NoMoreStolenSisters
