I Have Just One Thing to Say Today

On June 2, 2020 By Widow BadassIn Hmmm?34 Comments

One of these fine (?) days I am going to sit down and hammer out a post about my trip to my new home on Vancouver Island, and my adventures in moving house. But today is not that day.

Today, all I want to say is this:

BLACK LIVES MATTER

💔 Rock on,

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I am extremely grateful that I get to live on the unceded traditional territory of Stz'uminus First Nation. I acknowledge the damage and injustice that has been done to First Nations Peoples by settlers and that still needs to be addressed and corrected. I promise to revere this land that I live, play and create on; to treat its resources with respect; and to support Indigenous business and cultural initiatives whenever and wherever possible.
