Today is May 5. A National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People ❤️

This is not a past issue.
It is not rare.
It is not isolated.
It is a national crisis.

Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit people face disproportionately high rates of violence, trafficking, and homicide. In some regions, they are 12 times more likely to be murdered or go missing than non-Indigenous women. This is rooted in colonial systems that continue to devalue our lives—through racism, gendered violence, under-policing, over-incarceration, and government indifference.

This is why you should care:

• Because if it happened to your relative, you’d never stop fighting
• Because no one is disposable
• Because violence thrives where indifference exists
• Because love, safety, and justice should not be negotiable.
• Because truth demands more than awareness

This is about love.
Loving each other enough to speak out.
Loving our communities enough to protect them.
Loving this Land enough to confront the violence that stains it.

Ways you can help today and every day:

• Learn about the National Inquiry’s Final Report and the 231 Calls for Justice
• Read community-led reports like Red Women Rising
• Contact your MP. Demand implementation of the 231 Calls.
• Attend local vigils. Wear red. Light a candle. Say their names.
• Have conversations. Especially the hard ones. Especially at your kitchen table.

Above all—love one another fiercely. We are sacred. And we deserve to live without fear ❤️

The red handprint represents the colonial violence that silences us. It’s become a powerful visual in protests, photoshoots, and awareness campaigns to honour MMIWG2S+ and to show that we will no longer be silent about this national crisis.

On May 5, we wear red to break the silence. Red Dress Day is a solemn, powerful call to action for the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit people (MMIWG2S) crisis. Each crimson garment swaying in the wind represents a "presence in the absence"—a mother, daughter, sister, or friend whose story was cut short by systemic violence and neglect. It is a haunting reminder that while these women are gone, they are never forgotten, and their families are still seeking the justice they deserve.
This is more than just a day of awareness; it is a demand for change. Indigenous women continue to face disproportionate rates of violence, yet their disappearances too often go ignored. By wearing red, we honor the spirits of the stolen and stand in solidarity with the survivors and advocates fighting for safety and accountability. No more stolen sisters. Let the red dresses serve as a beacon, calling their spirits home and reminding the world that we will not stop looking, and we will not stop speaking their names. 🌹

This is the critical moment we’ve been anticipating.

Latest intel from Capitol Hill: time is being held on the Senate floor tomorrow to vote on a resolution that would dismantle the 20-year mining protections for the Boundary Waters.

Already called your Senators? Call again: (202) 224-3121 – tell them to vote no on HJ Resolution 140.

When offices hear from a flood of people at once, it sends a clear message: This matters. People are paying attention. And their constituents will remember their vote.
