The Dawn of a New Day by Lou-ann Neel© Today I woke up thankful for the dawn of a new day, a chance to quell the chaotic energies and fill the world with color, vision, hope, insight, laughter, friendship, and all good energies. I hope you have a wonderful day today too! #peacefulness

Victor Gao: VP, Center for China and Globalization: “The world is big enough that the United States is not the totality of the market in the world..If the United States wants to bully China, we will deal with the situation without the [US] and we expect to survive for another 5000 years.”

More than 100 scientists, Indigenous leaders and community members are in Vancouver to discuss the latest dire warnings about the climate crisis.

Dolphins at Sunset by Lou-ann Neel© Just felt like we needed a calm image to help regroup and refill our energies. Stay energized so the turmoil of the world doesn't wear you down.

"....The Senate’s legislation ultimately has little chance of passing the Republican-controlled House and being signed by Trump, but it showed the limits of Republican support for Trump’s vision of remaking the U.S. economy by restricting free trade..." www.ctvnews.ca/world/trumps...

Today, and every day, we are thankful to the fluent speakers of our languages for continuing to speak the languages of our lands - words, phrases, songs and names from our lands. Gilakas'la! ❤ Okay for social media re-sharing 😎👍 #IndigenousLanguagesDay #indigenous #language #languages

I will always stand with you, fam. No matter where you are. 🏳️‍⚧️ 🌈 ✊🏼

Just returned home from Whitehorse, Yukon. I was at a Reconciliation, Repatriation and Relationship workshop facilitated by @bcma.bsky.social. It was fantastic. So was My Big Bougie Beaded* Earrings, curated by artist Teagyn Vallevand, on now at the Kwanlin Dün Cultural Centre 🏅

Last chance to view Dorothy Grant: Raven Comes Full Circle, and Jackie Bell: The Messenger at Saahlinda Naay/Haida Gwaii Museum. A closing event for Jackie Bell will be held Sat. Mar 29, 1-3 pm, everyone welcome. Keep your eyeballs peeled for Dorothy’s show in the future - it will be travelling!

Despite that worry, I cannot stop standing up for what is right. I cannot turn a blind eye to injustice. I cannot ignore what Trump is doing to our democracy and our country. Or more precisely, I will not. So, I won’t. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/i-wo...

Looks like it's going to be a few more days of rain - nature is getting ready to blossom and change to the warmer days of Spring.

Something to think about

"Cosmama" speaks to cosmologies, those greatest imaginable expanses which give our comparably smaller human troubles a humbling context. We are part of something grand and mothering #Phillips #Coppers #artinstallation #gallery #display #MixedMedia #MichaelNicollYahgulanaas #NYC #dualities #exhibit

Believe families. Police have identified a second set of remains found at a Winnipeg-area landfill as those of Marcedes Myran, one of four Indigenous women who were victims of a serial killer in 2022, the province said. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Overly dramatic headline, but good work by Eby and NDP. “Yeah, it’s just for Tesla, and it’s because of Elon Musk,” said Eby. “I think if tens of thousands of taxpayers’ money was going to Elon Musk, they would want to throw up, so we removed them.” www.timescolonist.com/local-news/e...

#ElbowsUp I finally had an evening to do some edits to this design so it can be printed on t-shirts etc. it is now available in my online shop at Redbubble redbubble.com/people/LNeel/shop?asc=u

It's so stressful out there, so I though I'd share something beautiful: my new, abstract beaded earrings by my cousin @andybrownart.bsky.social. I just got them and they bring me great joy!
