Educate
General Education about Indigenous People and History
21-Day Racial Equity Indigenous Challenge - This is a great starting place for education and working to breakdown and reframe systemic beliefs and misconceptions about Indigenous people and history. Another great reason to start here is because the resources shared in this challenge highlight many Indigenous voices and different communities.
