Congress of Aboriginal Peoples | Congrès des peuples autochtones reposted this
‼️ The federal government continues to uphold a colonial hierarchy by excluding the very communities most impacted by the violence. ➡️The Congress of Aboriginal Peoples (CAP) has been the national voice for off-reserve Indigenous Peoples since 1971. ➡️Representing the interests of Métis, status and Non-status Indians, and Southern Inuit Indigenous People living off-reserve across Canada. ‼️Excluding CAP from the National Indigenous-Federal-Provincial-Territorial Roundtable on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2SLGBTQI+ People is denying the voices and participation of hundreds and thousands of Indigenous women, families, and survivors‼️ ‼️ Excluding CAP from discussions on MMIWG2S+ is contrary to Canada’s reconciliation commitments and violates principles outlined in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). #MMIWG2S+ #mmiwawareness #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs #UNDRIP #HumanRights #CDNPOLI #IFPT #whywewearred #nomorestolensisters
