They fight injustice. They speak up for their communities. They persist in the face of discrimination. On 9 August, #IndigenousDay, let’s honour indigenous women who show us the way to a better future with their voice, agency & activism. #WeAreIndigenous

I urge young women to accept leadership roles. We need you to promote love and compassion. Realise my dream—that the 200 nations of the world be governed by women. There’ll be less war, violence, and economic and social injustice because strength is rooted in love and compassion
