Indigenous Peoples Day

How to pick my topic for the week?  What to write this week... so many important things

on my mind on Monday and with those of the people in the USA right now. I normally publish this weekly on Mondays. 

• Indigenous Peoples Day (Monday)
• Black Lives Matter 
• Mental Health Awareness / Suicide Prevention
  
• VOTE! 21 days until the Election
• Cancer
• End of 2020 without Art Festivals
• Not Politics – Human Rights 
•  Womens Small Business Month 
• DIY earrings or bracelets
• Why Gemstones in my work?
  

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day.  I normally publish this weekly on Mondays.  As with many special holidays, I believe we should celebrate this for longer than one day. Water is Life became the know phrase to capture the movement began because of the DAP Dakpta Access Pipeline by the  Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.
