Ms. Que BanhAll three of us have faced multiple violent threats & assaults from RCMP. All three of us refused to bow down to any colonial corporate entities. All three of us lost loved ones to colonial violence. We are not built like some other women. We are women in active colonial resistance & it is a lifelong commitment. We do not have or will ever have white privileges. We respect our white comrades who have done heavy decolonization work a lot. We do not really respect anyone who always obeys any colonial masters & does not challenge them.<a href="https://beige.party/tags/WarriorWomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WarriorWomen</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/POCcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#POCcommunity</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ColonialResistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ColonialResistance</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Decolonization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Decolonization</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/RainbowNation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RainbowNation</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Activists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Activists</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MatriarchRising" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MatriarchRising</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/WomenOfResistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WomenOfResistance</a>
