thanksgiving is a holiday based on a falsified narrative full of white guilt and the erasure of history so what are some good native organizations to donate to this coming thursday

organizations recommended by @loneghostkid 

• native american rights fund
• heyday berkely roundhouse
• news from native california magazine
• national indian child welfare association
• california indian legal services
• the national indigenous women’s resource center

please also consider looking into funding native/tribal food sovereignty projects if you have food to donate or money to spare. friends, please add more if you know of them and have links to provide:

• native american food sovereignty alliance
• meskwaki food sovereignty initiative
• friends of pine ridge reservation
• first nations development institute

you can also buy food/gifts from indigenous sellers or donate to gofundme fundraisers made by indigenous people who need help getting groceries, paying medical bills, or paying rent. do something to help us and our communities.

try water projects too, like the navajo water project: https://www.navajowaterproject.org/

Navajo Water Project

a lot of reservations are fucked over on water by illegal oil drilling, pipelines, or other breaches, like in the navajo rez’s case: contaminated by illegal uranium mining.
