Heart wrenching. Sharing this. Love the fierceness of these young women.,

This is truly sad. Missing indigenous women are not even statistically counted as a missing population/group. This does need to change.

Sharing. This is a symptom of a greater ill in our society. It may start with our Native American communities but doesn't end there. You are on the right track to bring awareness to this issue. Hope things get better.

Yeah violence against women is a huge cultural issue being ignored. Covid covid covid well some of us are more worried about being murdered than catching a flu.
