"You're a jittery little thing, aren't you?"
Happy Halloween! 🎃 Dressed up as Leia Organa from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi during the battle of Endor 🌌 Leia joined forces with the Ewoks of Bright Tree Village, & combined her experience with Rebel guerrilla warfare & ambush strategies with the Ewoks' deep knowledge of forest terrain & combat tactics to plan an attack on the Imperial shield generator. When the Rebel strike team was captured, Wicket rallied the Ewok warriors, & Leia fought alongside them, defeating the stormtroopers & successfully destroying the shield generator. Because she organized alongside the Ewoks, the indigenous inhabitants of the forest moon of Endor, the Death Star was destroyed & the collapse of the Galactic Empire brought an era of peace & prosperity to the galaxy.
Episode VI serves as a reminder that if we want the Empire to be destroyed, the one we live in as we know it, we cannot do it alone; we have to organize & fight together. And indigenous voices should be prioritized & heard, indigenous lives & our lands should be protected. We are not free until all of us are free. I pray for the liberation of indigenous people from around the world, & that one day, whether in my lifetime or in the next, or after, that the Empire will fall.
My dad Robert Jiron took these photos of me in Na pi bien'ai ⛰️📸 It was nice standing amongst the na kheurai with you 💛 Heur'kem for your help! 🙌🏼 I had fun! 😊
I feel like Leia would like Dido lol 🎶
Never got to see the seasons change up north near Chama, but why go so far when I can see it change on Tiwa lands? 🌲🌳🍁🍂
