§Who are you calling Immigrant ?, Pilgrim

by Zachary RunningWolf

I'm an Indigenous (Blackfeet, Pikuni) elder and we are encouraging people to use Migrant rather than immigrant as "We did not cross the borders, the borders crossed us". Indian country stretches from the Arctic Circle to the tip of Chile and the use of the word Immigrant reinforces the borders forced on us. Vocabulary is powerful so "Who are you calling Immigrant, Pilgrim"
