The extermination order of the Timpanogos Shoshone Tribe from 1850 has never been rescinded by the state of Utah. Please sign this to make it happen. Mormons know this from Missouri. c.org/jx95jdtrqB

In 1974, Redbone became the first Native American rock group to reach the top 5 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart with their hit “Come and Get Your Love.”⁠ ⁠ The band used to begin their televised performances of the song with a traditional “Hail” song and dance, in order to proudly assert their Indigenous identity before a wide audience.⁠

@BellaBaddie__ Mushrooms, Marijuana, and Vaping are their go to toys.

Serious Question: The alcohol industry has lost $830 billion in the last 4 years, because Gen Z is not drinking. Why do you think they aren’t drinking?

When you think of old school country music who do you think of?? I’ll go first Hank Williams

@jccfergie Utah is First Nations land!

“Your state” is one of the most gorgeous tracts of land on earth, but much of it is totally uninhabitable, and it belongs to the Ute, Diné, Paiute, and Shoshone people, among others. Not you.

@brettachapman @jccfergie 👍🏽

@jccfergie I’m Native American (Ponca, Pawnee and Kiowa) and give me a trip to Ireland and the Irish any day over that guy and others like him in Utah

@jccfergie Facts! Facts and facts thank you 🙏

@nicoraytruth The Shoshone helped them survive the winter and assisted them when they first arrived because BY told the them they were just passing through on the way to California. The Shoshone had settlements up and down the Timpanogos(Jordan) river and Cottonwood Creek. 🪶🦬🦅

When Joseph fell at Carthage, the Saints were a leaderless people with a price on their heads, and by every law that governs such movements, this one should have ended there. A movement built on a martyred founder scatters and dies; it is nearly a rule of nature. This one did not die. Brigham Young, a plainspoken carpenter from Vermont, stood up in the smoking ruin of everything the people had built, and by the sheer iron of his will he refused to let them come apart. He did not inherit a kingdom. He inherited a wound, and a target, and ten thousand terrified souls, and he picked them up and carried them out. A thousand miles, on foot and by wagon, across rivers and plains and mountains, into a desert no one else on earth wanted, because it was the only ground far enough that the world might finally let his people live. He planned the exodus like a general and shepherded it like a father. He buried the dead along the trail and kept the living walking. When he came through the last canyon and looked out over a valley of salt and sagebrush that any sane man would have called a graveyard, he did not flinch and he did not despair. He said this is the place. And then he did the most audacious thing any leader of this people has ever done since Moses. He told a starving, frostbitten, exhausted remnant to build. There was no water where they needed it. No timber. No certainty the ground would yield a single season’s bread. There was a killing winter, and crickets that came in black clouds to devour what little they dared to plant. And into that emptiness Brigham spoke a civilization. He pulled the rivers down out of the mountains in the first irrigation works the American West had ever seen. He laid out a city in clean squares with his own hand and his own eye. He planted across a thousand miles of wasteland an entire commonwealth of towns and farms and temples, not by accident, not by drift, but by deliberate design, as a sustained act of faith, because he believed God had given his people a place and it was his charge to make it bloom or die in the trying. Brigham took the most worthless land on the map and commanded it to bring forth life, and it obeyed him, because behind the command was a faith that would not entertain the possibility of failure. Understand what this means for you, sitting comfortable and well fed in a Church whose survival you have never once had to fight for. Every blessing you take for granted rests on a foundation that hunted, half starved people laid with their bare hands under his direction. The temples you walk into exist because Brigham would not let the building stop. The very endurance of this Church, that it survived the decades when extermination was not a memory but a living and legal threat, is the work of his unbreakable conviction that God was not yet finished with this people. Joseph was the seer who tore open the heavens. Brigham was the lion who made certain there would still be a people left on the earth to receive what the heavens had poured out.

@brettachapman Heathens!

In this photo, Spaniards under the command of Columbus burned these Native Americans alive in their homes and hanged their leader on that nearby tree. Who were the real savages here?

@JoelXLorenzi If JW was 100% healthy it would’ve been a different story.

Alex Caruso, asked if the Spurs feel like a problem that needs to be solved: “There’s nothing that needs to be solved. We could’ve won the game tonight. You would’ve been asking them the same thing. I don’t think there’s this narrative that this is a bugaboo. We should’ve played better and won the game and been in the NBA Finals. They’re a good team, they’re young. (We’ll) both probably be around for a while. But we’ve gotta get better and try and win next time.”

@oodhamboi FACTS!

@brettachapman Survivors and true warriors! A’ho

At the Wounded Knee Massacre, the US government murdered many hundreds of Lakotas but it is also really important to remember that they didn’t wipe them all out—the resilient Lakota people survived this nightmare and are still here today and will always be here on their lands!

@Alerta_Gyaquil7 Honduras 1986 a group of US Army soldiers saw s 75-80 Ft snake come out of the El Coco river. They reported it to their superiors but were shut down. They found out later the locals referred to the snake as El Diablo.

@CriddleBenjamin Yessir!

Should Kosgei have been disqualified for this move?

@sltrib Horrible!

Some Pacific Islander groups in the state feel the fee is discriminatory. The University of Utah says it’s necessary to clean up the mess the flowers leave behind. sltrib.com/news/education…

@sarahadams You left out genocide of indigenous people

I find it so incredibly offensive that some musicians don’t even want to celebrate the 250 year birthday of the greatest country on earth. A lot of these people truly haven’t a clue what has been sacrificed for this country or how many Americans gave everything so they could live the lives they do today. This nation was built and defended by generations willing to fight, bleed, and die for freedom, opportunity, and the ability to speak openly including the freedom to complain about America while benefiting from everything it provides. Celebrating 250 years should not even be controversial. It’s about honoring the people who built this country, defended it, and kept it standing through every challenge thrown at it. Loving your country is not a bad thing, no matter how hard some people try to manipulate and convince you otherwise. Pride in your nation, its people, and its sacrifices is something to be proud of and worth standing up for. Screw anyone trying to shame people for loving America.

@thatdayin1992 @ArtistAmira7 Correct!

It's not "land loss", it's genocide.

@HawkEmDownChris Yes!

Yes or No: You’ve seen your favorite NFL team win multiple Super Bowls in your lifetime.

@Ragin_Cajun79 @DadsSeasonings FIRE! 🔥

@Brightpath1987 @DadsSeasonings Finger-licking... mouth-smacking... BBQ!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

🚨🔥 BBQ ALERT 🔥🚨 No shortcuts. No pellets. No gadgets doing the work for me. Just time, patience, fire, and intentional flavor bombs. This brisket was dry-brined for 24 hours and seasoned with @DadsSeasonings Brisket Rub before a long, slow cook that built a bark worthy of respect. The result? A deep, peppery crust, rendered fat like butter, and slices so tender they barely held together on the sharp carving knife. Alongside it.. beef smoked sausage finished with a tangy BBQ glaze, Mexican street corn (Elote) grilled and dressed with crema, cotija cheese, fresh cilantro, and a smoky chipotle cream sauce. And the only truly respectable southern side dis... collard greens that deserve their own spotlight: Applewood bacon Red bell peppers Fresno chiles Yellow onion Garlic Chicken stock White pepper Hot sauce Apple cider vinegar Finished with a light slurry for a rich, silky pot liquor that clings to every bite. 🔥 Every component brought something different... The brisket brought the bark. The sausage brought the snap. The collards brought the soul. The elote brought the fusion. This is why God created diner tables. 🇺🇸 Low and slow 🇺🇸 Family 🇺🇸 Food made with intention and love 🇺🇸 @hmcrem @Gaijin_Markus @TapRootsFood @goodbreffis @Supersonic_Red @Elil2002 @evilgeniusnyc @AnthonyTom87828 @TexSandlin @Rez_Lizard
