From the dairy farms in New York to the vast fields of the Central Valley of California, Indigenous migrant farmworkers are among the most overworked, underpaid, vulnerable, and disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Indigenous essential workers put food on the table every day for us, our children, and our elders, but in return face poor working conditions due to discrimination and harassment, all of which has been exacerbated by the pandemic and the wildfires on the West Coast.

La perspectiva que hace unos años se tenía sobre las lenguas Indígenas originarias ha cambiado de una forma importante en la sociedad mexicana. Antes se creía que estas lenguas no eran más que la razón del fracaso académico o social de las personas que las hablaban. Expresiones como “no te sirve de nada esa lengua”, “no te dejará nada bueno si sigues hablando tu lengua”, eran frecuentes hacia nosotros, quienes pertenecemos a los pueblos originarios.

It's time to recognize that celebrating the life of Christopher Columbus is the same as celebrating the erasure of Indigenous existence. There has been much movement around the country to replace Columbus Day with Indigenous Peoples' Day but more work remains to be done. We are excited to share some local and national events celebrating Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous Peoples Day.
