@wonderofscience Thank you for this! The magnetosphere deflects charged solar particles through magnetohydrodynamic processes. NASA's Heliophysics research shows this creates auroras as particles funnel to the poles. How might solar maximum activity affect our tech infrastructure? #indigenouspeoplesday #MonochromeMonday #magicsongsorpoems #Fotomontag #mastobada #science

For Indigenous Peoples' Day, celebrate world indigenous peoples with film plus our free educational resources. Combine classroom-ready lesson plans and discussion guides to make learning about World Indigenous Peoples part of your curriculum all year round.

#MembertouFirstNation connects with #Pride #CapeBreton on deeper level

'As traditional people we know how it feels to go underground and have our ceremonies hidden,' says Jeff Ward

CBC · Posted: Aug 09, 2019

"As #PrideCapeBreton winds down, some people on the #Membertou First Nation say the community's large presence in the festivities is a natural fit.

"This year, Membertou hosted the popular #DragQueenBingo event, the Membertou pedway was lit up in Pride colours, the flags at the #MembertouHeritagePark were swapped for #LGBTQ flags and there was a Membertou float in the #PrideParade.

"Jeff Ward, manager of the heritage park, said participating in Pride events is something the community connects with.

"' 'As traditional people, we know how it feels to go underground and have our ceremonies hidden,' he said, pointing to how revisions in the Indian Act in 1951 removed a ban on ceremonies.

A personal connection

"Andrea Dennis works at the heritage park. She said staff secured #TwoSpirit flags for the first time and people have been snapping them up.

"Two-spirit is a term sometimes used by #IndigenousPeople to describe #gay, #lesbian, #transgender or #NonBinary people. The flag has two feathers on top of the traditional rainbow pattern.

"Dennis said her brother, who is dead, was two-spirit. She said when he first came out, he was harassed. Her brother moved to Toronto, but he was still harassed.

"She believes things have changed for the better.

" 'His spirit is still alive in me,' said Dennis. 'Even going to a Pride parade reminds me of him, it's like he's still there.' "

#NativeAmericaCalling: Language teachers celebrate success on #IndigenousPeoplesDay

Monday, October 13, 2025

"After an intensive two-year adult immersion program, the number of fluent #SpokaneSalish language speakers nearly doubled.

"The success represents the work of the #SpokaneLanguageHouse, a non-profit that is funded and supported by the #Spokane Tribe in #WashingtonState. Now, some of the immersion program graduates will be hired on as full-time language teaching staff as the tribe expands its language revitalization efforts.

"Meanwhile, the #YuchiTribe in #Oklahoma has established the #YuchiLanguageProject. As part of the work, the tribe developed a unique partnership with an #AustralianAboriginal nation to exchange ideas for revitalizing both of their endangered languages.

"Tune into Native America Calling to hear about these two recent Native language success stories.

"Also, hear about a five-part talk show, ' #RematriatedVoices', centered on #Haudenosaunee culture and principles. The first episode airs on Indigenous Peoples Day on New York #PBS affiliate #WCNY.

"Guests on Native America Calling
#SulustuBarryMoses (Spokane Tribe of Indians), program manager for adult fluency training and executive director of the Spokane Language House

" #RichardGrounds (Yuchi and #Seminole), executive director of the Yuchi Language Project

" #MichelleSchenandoah ( #Oneida), founder and executive lead of Rematriation"

Never forget that every single problem we have on this PLANET is because of white colonizers and the death of or suppression of Indigenous systems.

Never forget that. #IndigenousPeoplesDay
