With Native American Heritage Month well underway and Thanksgiving/National Day of Mourning occurring today, let us celebrate Indigenous brilliance, honor, and acknowledge the truth in history, recognize whose land we are on, and work towards true allyship.

Gracias, Presidente/a.

La Amazonía, nuestro hogar, es la próxima frontera petrolera mundial.

Los Pueblos Indígenas estamos bajo ataque.

Nos enfrentamos a la militarización colonial de nuestros territorios, donde Estados y corporaciones intercambian nuestras vidas por combustibles fósiles, minerales de transición y energías renovables a gran escala.

Food is a living expression of culture, memory, and identity. Across Native American nations, it remains a powerful act of resistance and reclamation. During Native American Heritage Month, we honor the Indigenous knowledge keepers who are revitalizing traditional foodways, restoring relationships to land, and challenging colonial erasure through the dishes they create. Indigenous chefs are not only preserving ancestral ingredients and cooking techniques, but also strengthening food sovereignty, community health, and cultural pride.
