A historic moment for Abya Yala and Native peoples across the continent!
For generations, Native peoples throughout Abya Yala have carried the prophecy of Pachakuti. Today, we recognize that its time has come. In Quechua, pacha refers to time, space, and the world, while kuti means return, turning, or reversal. Pachakuti speaks of a great cosmic turning a moment when the established order is overturned, reality is transformed, and a new spiritual and material balance begins to emerge.
Throughout our continent, Native peoples have endured colonization, dispossession, massacres, abuse, and attempts to erase our histories, identities, and ways of life. Yet, despite everything, we are still here. And today, this historical transformation continues to unfold, including in the United States.
They thought burying us would make us disappear.
All those murdered. All those abused. The massacres of Native peoples. The generations whose lives were taken in attempts to silence us.
But they never knew we were SEEDS!
We are rising. Germinating. GROWING!
And today, we celebrate a historic milestone Deb Haaland has made history as the first Native American woman elected governor in the United States.
Our ancestors planted seeds they knew they might never see bloom. Today, we witness another generation rising.
The prophecy continues.
