Red Road to D.C

This Summer, the House of Tears Carvers of the Lummi Nation will transport a 25-foot totem pole from Washington State to Washington DC, stopping for ceremony and live-streamed events with communities leading efforts to protect sacred places under threat from resource extraction and industrial development. As the pole travels it draws lines of connection—honoring, uniting and empowering communities working to protect sacred places. The pole carries the spirit of the lands it visits and the power and prayers of communities along the way—ultimately delivering these prayers, power and demands to the Biden-Harris Administration and Congress in Washington DC, and culminating in an exhibition at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian. In the context of a national reckoning with American history, and the acknowledgement of past and present injustices inflicted on Native Peoples and lands without consent, the Red Road to DC invites people to take a stand with those who are struggling to protect sacred places. Our collective future depends on it.

Counselor NM

“President Biden’s recent executive order to pause oil and gas leasing on federal lands is a step forward toward ensuring clean air, water, land, and our culture for future generations. However, there is still a lot of uncertainty for cultural landscapes like the Greater Chaco region, where Indigenous communities are still impacted by adverse environmental and health injustices.”

Feminist Future(s)

This May, the Feminist Future(s) Team invite you to join our month-long hackathon and community event series where we will practice care, collectivity, and radical imagination to dream and build feminist future(s) in which people and the planet thrive. In teams mentored by community organizations, we will design interventions for four topic areas:

- Reproductive Justice (collaborators: @_therenee & @periodequity)

- The Care Economy (collaborator: National Domestic Workers Alliance)

Prison Abolition (collaborators TBA!)

Environmental Justice (Collaborator: Pueblo Action Alliance) 

From art activism, to community gardens, to planning for mutual aid, we know that innovation doesn’t need to be high-tech to be high-impact. While we’re all tired of Zoom, we aim to create a virtual space that is caring, inclusive, and joyful.


Brought to you by Alexis, Melissa, Jenn, Joey, Catherine, and Laura who are the Feminist Futures organizing team and members of the “Make the Breast Pump Not Suck!” collaborative. With support from the Data + Feminism Lab and the MIT Media Lab.
