    National Day of Mourning 2024

    The Red Nation attended this year’s 55th annual National Day of Mourning in Plymouth, Massachusetts. In 1970, Indigenous people and organizations of New England and the American Indian Movement protested at the settler colonial monuments of the Mayflower 2 and Plymouth Rock, disrupting and disproving the myth of so-called Thanksgiving and providing a counter-narrative that cuts the myths of colonization right to the core. Today’s episode is an edited version of the line of speeches from this year’s event. Watch the video edition on the Red Nation Podcast YouTube channel Watch our report on our TikTok page and social media platforms! https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYAggXcL/  For more information on the event, visit the United American Indians of New England website. http://uaine.org/  Thank you for supporting Red Media during Native American Heritage Month!
