        They are astronomers, lawyers, postal workers, heavy machine operators and grandmothers. Meet the roller derby athletes who are “reclaiming” their space, promoting female empowerment and standing up for indigenous people everywhere. http://nyti.ms/2tkOp6D pic.twitter.com/RZJV93AkvJ

        “When I talk about decolonizing roller derby, I talk about recognizing that opportunity and access exist in roller derby only for white privileged American and European people.” — Melissa Waggoner (right), a.k.a. “Mick Swagger,” who started Team Indigenous http://nyti.ms/2tkOp6D pic.twitter.com/r1qtODH0qT

        For these women, representing Team Indigenous at the Roller Derby World Cup is not just about winning. Sasheen Wesley (left), a.k.a. “Bash-Full,” is drawing attention to a number of indigenous women who vanished or were killed along the “Highway of Tears.” http://nyti.ms/2tkOp6D pic.twitter.com/Tu5MgZDZa0

        For some players, the team is the first step in learning about their families. Christine Phillips-Ryburn, a.k.a. “Whakintawh,” will retire from the sport this year to learn more about her family’s tribe, the Tawanaki Iwi people of New Zealand. http://nyti.ms/2tkOp6D pic.twitter.com/IVHORWpDIw

        Dude, are you really an elected official who feels the need to weigh in on whether roller derby is a "real sport"? Don't you have things to do? I date you to try roller derby. It's pretty damn real. #derbytwitter

        And now that I have done my due diligence, I see that you are not, in fact, really an elected official.

        iew not white people at least silly, plus asia wasnt colonised by white people even thought they probably could have been because white people are evil colonisers that caused all the violence and unfairness in the world, before white people everyone used to hi5 and make gumbo :(.

        Remember the days of Ann Calvello, "Pocahontas," and Old Leather Britches himself, Dick Lane? Whoa Nellie! And the old L.A. Olympic Auditorium? No? Well, I guess I am getting old.
