Indian No More!


I have decided that I do not like being called indian, by an indian or otherwise. Indian does not convey anything about me that is indigenous, stelmexw or bak'wam. If some Europian idiot got lost or we're "in god" with en dios, I am indian no more. No more "One little, two little, three little indians!"! No more!

I am Stelmexw! I am Bak'wam! I am an Indigenous Citizen of my ansestors land. No the portreyed version of the colinial power and state. Bye Bye indian.... Hello future!

(Take that Bitch's!)

About me

  • I'm Rivers
  • From the village of Xwemelch'stn, Sḵwxwú7mesh-ulh
  • Dustin Rivers is a writer and community organizers of indigenous origins. He is of two tribes: Sḵwxwú7mesh and 'Namgis. He has a flare for action and contemplative meme's. He offers indigenous polemics, simply because he does not want a myopic political future for his people. Objective number one is to give breath to the noble way; a decolonize pose in life. Life, culture, and the writings of an inspired-youth.
