When I say my ancestors protect me. 😇
Protect my heart.
Protect my mind.
Protect my being.

“The Elders and advisors that I sought teachings from said to not look at the Eclipse, as it’s an intimate moment between Mooshom Pisim, Grandfather Sun, and Kokum Tipiski Pisim, Grandmother Moon. A long awaited reunion, the Divine Feminine and Sacred Masculine coming together as One.

Some say they are coming into needed counsel to discuss the current state of chaos across the planet. Some say this needed time together will provide the energetic guidance needed to bring peace and harmony.

Whatever your beliefs, I think we should all aim to facilitate for ourselves a sacred space for deep spiritual connection; there is no denying the great energetic influence the Sun and Moon have on this planet and Her inhabitants.”

Words from my dear friend, Jenny Sâwanohk

-

For myself, I’m noticing many emotions coming up.

Some uncomfortable, and some painful.

I’m allowing them to be my teachers; allowing myself to observe them and listen to their wisdom they may have for me.

So I’ll be making sacred space for myself today to allow release to happen. Healing is always piece by piece.

Hold yourself with gentleness and compassion today ❤️

📌Hey Guys. So I am participating in this year’s through Endangered Languages Project to use social media tools for language content creation, especially for indigenous and minoritised languages. For the next 6 weeks, we will be prompted to produce various content beginning with this one.

Challenge 1: Share my connection to my language. ✊🏼

This picture symbolizes the significance of my language in my life. It serves as a thread that intertwines our ancestral wisdom, knowledge, and history. It provides a connection to my past and identity while also fostering opportunities for innovation and creativity to benefit our societies.🙏🇬🇾

Exciting News! 🚨🚨

We are raising critical questions about carbon credit certification in our new report, “Art’s Controversial Certification of Carbon Credits to the Government of Guyana: A Case Study on Challenges for ‘High-Integrity’ Labels in Carbon Markets.”

Here’s what you need to know:
• The study was compiled collectively by the Amerindian Peoples Association, Forest Peoples Programme (FPP) and Rainforest Foundation US and investigates the certification process by the Architecture for REDD+ Transactions (ART) for carbon credits sold by Guyana.
• In the report, we argue that ART failed to ensure Guyana adhered to Indigenous Peoples' right to free, prior, and informed consent during the process.
• The report also highlights concerns about the limited participation of Indigenous communities in decision-making and benefit-sharing.
• This research aims to expose potential flaws in international carbon crediting and push for stricter standards that uphold human rights and empower Indigenous communities.

It's easy to judge.
It's more difficult to understand. Understanding requires compassion, patience, and a willingness to believe that good hearts sometimes choose poor methods.
Through judging, we separate. Through understanding, we grow.

I've wanted to share some thoughts on being called buck in Guyana. Its imperative to unpackage the experiences attached to it in the process of reclaiming your pride in one's identity. The original clip was 26 minutes but this is the essence of it. 👌👌👌 Do share yours. For more videos like this, do follow me on tiktok @kapohn
