This week, we offer a special newsletter to recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day, “an opportunity to rebuke the celebration of settler colonialism ([link removed]) ,” in the words of Raymond Foxworth. Our selections today feature Native voices and approaches to wellbeing, from hyper-local community projects to reimagining entire systems. First, Native children involved in the child welfare system do better when they stay within their communities. Native family protection practices focus on ways to hold the child in the center to promote healing, justice, and Indigenous sovereignty. Next, the Cihuapactli Collective in Arizona links food justice and maternal health, restoring ancestral practices of food cultivation to increase nutrition and reduce generational trauma. Then, a sustainable future depends on recognizing our limits: a story from our summer magazine issue explores the healing promise and power of
Indigenous economies. Finally, Invisible No More: Voices from Native America, coedited by Raymond Foxworth and NPQ’s Steve Dubb, is available now!
