late edit: DISCLAIMER: The pictured map is not actually a representation of the territories before colonisation. It's a hypothetical map of what countries there might have been had the continent not been colonised, thus all the names and borders are fictional and have never existed.
For good actual maps, check out native-land.ca.
For anyone interested in advancing this cause I can't recommend enough to look into Chunka Luta Network.

The path to liberation lies in these decolonial struggles, the fight that indigenous people have been putting up against the US imperial project is inextricable from the fight to liberate the people of Palestine. The only way for any of us to be free, ALL of us must be free. That means that there is no fighting against Zionism without also fighting against the US settler colonial project that enables it.
Every small donation literally saves lives as temperatures are dropping fast and Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota is one of the poorest places in the country. Average life expectancy among men is ~52, and for women ~54. We are securing gas money for collecting firewood, warm clothes and winter supplies, food, and eventually building new housing and a community center.
It is hard to get direct aid to people in Palestine right now but you can fight the genocidal settler colonial project in your back yard by helping us build dual power and save lives.

We are working on building a website and filming a documentary, I can personally attest to what we have been doing with the funding we have received thus far.
I personally visited in august where we provided a whole buffalo for the sundance along with firewood and other winter survival necessities, and some of us volunteering our labor. You want colonized people fighting for existence to have a slick presentation to appeal to your white settler sensibilities? Like yeah we will have a website up eventually but that is so not on the list of priorities while we work to prevent people from dying RIGHT NOW on the rez.
"Mate"...

We are literally building a website right now, but in the meantime people are still fucking dying out there. Last year one elder on the rez was burning his own clothes to keep warm
In the meantime these are tools immediately available to us to reach large numbers of people and building a website and hosting it also costs money.
Right now our focus is getting folks through the winter and then come spring starting construction on new housing and the community center. We have the land and the people to do the work we just need to pay for it. And this will pave the way for more projects in the future such as a youth survival school, community gardens as a push toward food sovereignty, and a buffalo pasture so that they don't have to go pay a white rancher a fee to hunt them. This will also bolster conservation and repopulation efforts regarding buffalo.
Also we should have a 501c3 set up by the end of the year to lay your skepticism to rest.
Apologies for the hostility but, like, this is an actual life or death situation and I gave you the links to what we have publicly available so far.
People use the tools they have access to, and some things are more important than worrying about using a platform that works because tool's owner's business model or actions are bad.
