Between 8 Nov 2021 and July 2022 AL Jazeera published a serial of
articles (except one i.e. an Al Jazeera team)
all by the Cree-Iroquois Canadian-French journalist Brandi
Morin about femicides of Canadian Indigenous women and girls and
of Indigenous children who were abducted from their parents houses and
brought to residential schoolsof which each word is so
heartbreaking that it takes a lot of courage to read the whole serial. Still I challenge you to do so! I divided it according to the
number of articles and quoted from them ending with a read more URL.:

<<Mexican rebels donate museum money for canoes to refugee rescues.
Three exquisitely decorated canoes hand-carved in the jungles of
southern Mexico and borne across the Atlantic on a ship tasked with a
peaceful, symbolic – and cumbia-soundtracked – invasion of Spain could
soon find a permanent mooring in the heart of Madrid. More importantly,
proceeds from the sale of the small boats could help save some of the
tens of thousands of men, women and children who risk their lives
crossing the Mediterranean each year. The cayucos, or dugout canoes,
were brought to Europe by a band of Indigenous Zapatistas who arrived in
northern Spain in June last year on a mission of solidarity to mark the
500th anniversary of the conquest of Mexico. The boats, along with an
anti-capitalist embroidery, a painting and a video, ended up on display
at Madrid’s Reina Sofía museum in a room that explores post-colonial
community resistance including the social, political and cultural
struggle of the Indigenous, anti-globalist Zapatista National Liberation
Army (EZLN). Fifteen months after the Zapatistas' rusty ship La Montana
docked in the northern Spanish region of Galicia on a voyage <to sow
life – not like 500 years ago>, the museum is in the process of buying
all six items from the EZLN. The rebel group will donate the proceeds
from the €25,000 (£21,000) sale to Open Arms, the Spanish NGO that
rescues migrants and refugees in the Mediterranean, and whose efforts
have brought it into conflict with Italy’s former interior minister and
far-right leader Matteo Salvini. The EZLN, which became famous for
leading an uprising in Mexico's southern Chiapas state that coincided
with the enactment of the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1994,
said it was donating the money to Open Arms because it had been
profoundly moved by the NGO's humanitarian work. <For some time now, we
have been following the route of pain and suffering that migrants travel
when, in a bid to escape a destiny of death and destruction, they dare
to cross the sea to reach European land,> it said in a
characteristically discursive, irreverent and impassioned letter. <We
saw that there were people who cannot witness an inhumane act without
doing something to try to remedy or alleviate it. And so it happened
that, from the mountains of south-east Mexico, we watched boats that
left the paralysis of docks and tourist routes and set off to rescue
those shipwrecked in European waters.> Open Arms responded with a
heartfelt statement of its own, thanking the EZLN for what it termed <a
hug of solidarity that builds bridges where others build walls and for a
borderless generosity that sows life where others sow death and
destruction>.
In keeping with the spirit of the canoes, it added, the donation would
be spent on buying a new launch for its Astral rescue ship <so we can
carry on with our vocation of an endless journey, a journey for a life
of dignity and in defence of the rights of human beings with no
distinctions whatsoever.>>
