I STAN THIS WOMAN SO HARD and yeah, the fact she reminds me of my nanas (who were of Taína ascendancy) totally has to do with it.
New México is the only place i’ve ever been where i was asked which First People’s nation i was part of. here am Black. over there, am Native. i love that.
PS: don't sleep on Deb Haaland’s fashion sense. she totally goes hard. look at that beaded collar she’s working the fuck out. QUEEN!
Deb Haaland makes history to become the first-ever First Nations governor of a US state. She will be the 108th governor of New Mexico.
