CW violence against Indigenous women, genocide, serial killings - Today is a day meant for honouring victims of gendered violence. At the same moment, Winnipeg police will not search a landfill *known* to have the remains of multiple Indigenous women, murdered by a serial killer. https://t.co/YwfmaiD1vD

Today, we remember the victims of genocide and take this opportunity to raise awareness of genocide prevention. Together, let’s stand against hatred, intolerance and do our part in preventing these conflicts. https://t.co/AqOCdnF3os #GenocidePreventionDay https://t.co/qaqFcmkpV2

It is callous of Chief Smyth to rule out a search before one has even began. This affirms that our lives have been deemed not valuable & that our genocide is normalized. Families deserve so much better than this response. We deserve justice NOW! #MMIWG2S https://t.co/4FXzbgUrfN

Continuing genocide against Indigenous peoples in Canada. Back in 2012 Winnipeg Police had no problems searching a landfill for bodies of murder victims. Every year their budget goes up, yet they refuse to do anything. It's about time we learn they do not protect people. https://t.co/NWYh9efnIC https://t.co/SCNirh6VGd

Every year on 24 April, the Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day, thousands of Armenians gather at the memorial to commemorate the victims of the genocide. The people who gather in Tsiternakaberd lay fresh flowers out of respect for all the people who died in the Armenian genocide. https://t.co/XdJNK9KqiR

But please keep telling queer people in America that they're exaggerating when they say they're afraid they're about to be victims of a genocide. https://t.co/QOjP0pd2TB
