International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples in 2022

The International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples seeks to protect and promote the rights, culture, and land of indigenous people. Indigenous peoples, descendants of pre-colonial times, have a strong tie to their lands and often suffer from marginalization as a minority group.

Today is The International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples. Love to all missing their homeland, displaced by colonization & war. Love to those fighting for #LandBack - just love & solidarity. “They tried to burry us, but they didn’t know that we were seeds” - ♥️✊🏽🌻 https://t.co/fOtW0jcVmm

I thank all those who made this penitential pilgrimage possible, beginning with the Civil Authorities, the Chiefs of the Indigenous Peoples, and the Canadian Bishops. I sincerely thank all those who accompanied me with their prayer.

This is a disturbing piece of footage. An attack on Taiwan will also be an attack on the ancestral homeland of the indigenous peoples of Polynesia & Aotearoa. The 800k indigenous Taiwanese are close cousins of Pacific peoples. China wants to treat them like the Uyghurs. https://t.co/3CddohDed8

May the fortitude and peaceful action of the indigenous peoples of #Canada be an example for all indigenous peoples not to close in on themselves, but to offer their contribution for a more fraternal humanity that knows how to love creation and the Creator.
