What if the Americas (North/Central/South) were never colonized by European settlers? Imagine a parallel reality where the Indigenous people of the Americas continued a life in balance with Mother Nature, where industrialism never poisoned the rivers and atmosphere, and agribusiness never destroyed this continent’s soil microbiome.
The Mixed Space celebrates and empowers indigenous people by doing something unparalleled: auctioning an NFT entitled Vision Quest inspired by acclaimed model, Indigenous activist, and TMS friend Hateepah/Coyotl based in this alternate reality timeline, where we can imagine a reality where nature is restored to holistic balance and the Earth and ourselves thrive and flourish. This will be accomplished using an OpenSea digital wallet provided by the tech company CyTess. The auction will be timed, beginning on ThanksTaking (“Thanksgiving Day”) on November 25th at 12 a.m. EST, and ending on November 30th at 11:59 p.m. EST.
The Thanksgiving holiday is largely based on a falsified history. It reinforces an erroneous narrative of the peaceful existence of colonialism, erasing the premeditated conquest of Indigenous nations by Europeans, the largest genocide in humankind. Many Native Americans reclaim the framing of this yearly retelling with ThanksTaking, accurately commemorating the historical events and their context. It emphasizes and celebrates the varied history and culture of the Americas’ First People.
