“Take it from me, kid, sometimes it’s okay to run. You run as fast as you damn well can.”
Barry Kirwan, The Eden Paradox

Ryan Emanuel
“Indigenous survival in the face of erasure speaks to our resilience, adaptability, and—when necessary—an obstinance that has survived three centuries of oppression. So the next time you read or hear in a land acknowledgment that "these are the ancestral lands of..." remember that we never left.”
Ryan Emanuel, On the Swamp: Fighting for Indigenous Environmental Justice
