Introducing a vibrant Image that celebrates the beauty and strength of Indigenous people. Each canvas comes inscribed with a timeless sentiment that reminds us that colonializations is genocide and that Indigenous rights are human rights. Pay homage to the culture and lives of Indigenous women with this stylized image. This image is both delicate and powerful, yet mournful at its simplicity. It shares a story of broken treaties, of oppression and of resilience in the face of modern consumerism. Of a history of people blamed for being different, for being part of a culture that is completely misunderstood, and yet, one in which resilience and hope prevail, despite the odds. This canvas was produced to raise awareness on the atrocities of the ongoing genocide inflicted on Indigenous people, even today. We must remember those that have gone missing and murdered. If we are to truly understand the gravity of our history, and move forward, it requires our unified commitment to create meaningful change. A portion of the proceeds of this canvas goes to helping Native Hope.org with their campaign focused on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW). While purchasing this canvas in an effort to spread awareness about these issues might initially seem quixotic, it is, in fact, an action of positivity. We can’t afford to keep turning a blind eye and ignoring those that have been victimized for centuries and generations. So, let this canvas be a reminder to always stay vigilant and to, ultimately, create a brighter future with equal opportunities for all where Indigenous people and cultures are respected and celebrated. #NativePride #NativeStrong #IndigenousPeople #IndigenousLivesMatter #MMIW #NativeWomen #NativeHope #GenocideSurvivors #AwarenessMatters #IndigenousCulture #IndigenousRights
