500 Missing Sisters

(Eep.. apologies – these photos are from February.. stop eating my life, BA!)

These photographs are from the No More Silence March held on February 14, 2010 in Toronto to honour the lives of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada. Over 500 indigenous women have been murdered or have gone missing in the last thirty years on Turtle Island.
“[We] come together to grieve the loss of beloved sisters, remember the women who are still missing, and to dedicate ourselves to justice… We come together in defense of our lives and to demonstrate against the complicity of the state in the ongoing genocide of Indigenous women and the impunity of state institutions and actors (police, RCMP, coroners’ offices and the courts) that prevents justice for all Indigenous Peoples.” – No One Is Illegal (Check them out!)
