Mending the Broken Circle: Uniting to End the Epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women

5/1/2023

​In our Indigenous cultures, females are revered and honored as the givers of life, the nurturers of families and communities, and the carriers of knowledge and traditions. This honor is deeply symbolic of our Indigenous people's reverence for Mother Earth, who also embodies the power of creation, healing, and regeneration. We, Indigenous people, see the female body, soul, and spirit as interconnected and sacred and believe that the well-being of women is essential to the well-being of the entire community.
However, the ongoing epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous women, attempts to break this cycle of power and reverence by perpetrating violence and trauma upon Indigenous women and our communities. The loss of our women is a tragedy for our families and our entire Indigenous community, who feel the loss of our knowledge, wisdom, and contributions.
Despite the attempts to annihilate and destroy Indigenous peoples, we have remained resilient and strong. Indigenous people believe that the Creator will protect us and bring justice for the tears shed by the families of the lost women. We Indigenous communities have come together to raise awareness, demand justice, and honor the memories of our missing and murdered women.
Through ceremonies, art, and activism, we Indigenous people reclaim our power and stand up against the forces that seek to silence us. By cherishing and honoring our women, we Indigenous people are renewing our commitment to Mother Earth and the interconnectedness of all life. We are reaffirming our place in the world as stewards of the land and protectors of our people.
We must bring higher energy to finally stop the injustice of Missing and Murdered Indigenous women; we must raise awareness during the week of May 1st -7th, the National Week of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. By spreading the word through social media, community events, and conversations with friends and family, we can increase visibility and draw attention to this vital issue.
We can also support Indigenous-led organizations and initiatives that are working to address the root causes of this epidemic and provide resources and support for the families of missing and murdered women. By amplifying Indigenous people's and communities' voices, we can build momentum toward real change and hold those who perpetrate violence and trauma upon Indigenous women accountable.
As we bring light to the darkness of those who wrong women, we can create a world where all women are honored, cherished, and protected. Let us unite in solidarity and support Indigenous people as we resist, heal, and reclaim our power. Together, we can create a future where the spirits of the missing and murdered women can rise up in spirit with us, and our families can find the justice we deserve.
Changing the epidemic of Missing and Murdered Indigenous women requires us to raise our power as one. By coming together in solidarity and recognizing the interconnectedness of all life, we can create a force for positive change. It is essential to listen to and amplify the voices of we Indigenous people impacted by this issue and let us lead the way towards justice.
We must share the stories of the missing and murdered Indigenous women to keep the conversation going and increase awareness about the scale of this problem. Through storytelling and education, we can create empathy and understanding for the pain and suffering experienced by our Indigenous communities.
We must also hold those accountable who perpetrate violence and trauma upon Indigenous women. This includes advocating for better laws, policies, and resources to prevent violence against women and demanding accountability for those who have already caused harm.
It is essential to keep the conversation going until justice is made for the missing and murdered Indigenous women. We must stay engaged, remain vigilant, and continue to advocate for change until this issue is fully addressed. Together, we can create a future where all women are honored, cherished, and protected, and the spirits of the missing and murdered women can rise up in solidarity.
