red dress day

May 5th is the national day for awareness of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people. 

You can learn more at Amnesty International Canada

From their website: 

"Red Dress Day matters because it makes the invisible visible. It forces this country to confront the truth. It reminds us that every single life matters, that these lives still matter, and we will never stop fighting for justice."

I folded this red dress based on a design by Gay Merrill Gross. 

With it, I remember and honor the precious lives we have lost in Canada and around the world to violence against women and girls.
