#DearNonNatives is powerful hashtag full of Native voices talking about their experiences.

#DearNonNatives: Natives were told to start our own HT, so watch how far a Native HT will go.

#DearNonNatives My relatives on the other sides of your borders are still Native so it's not immigration. It's home.

UPDATE: Sadly many of these tweets and accounts no longer exist because racists are going to be racists. The originals screenshots by me and have gotten considerable exposure on Tumblr, with almost 25,000 notes. It should be noted in that time, only one whiny Becky with the Good Hair and a few racist trolls bothered to act up.
