We have a painting in our house that was made by a friend of ours back in the UK. It's spread over three 1 meter square canvases, and it depicts DENALI in Alaska.

It was a gift for @amerikate's birthday one year.

She spent some significant time in Alaska as a child, and the mountain means a lot to her.

The moutnain is called Denali.

It is not called McKinley.

Fuck the hateful orange turd who decided to be racist and try and remove the name.

It will ALWAYS be Denali.

“Dzidzilalich” has been proposed as an honorary name for the new Elliott Way in downtown #Seattle, and for Alaskan Way from Elliott Way to S Dearborn Street. I'm glad to see the name return to our waterfront, but couldn't we have done better than "Elliott Way" for the new road? writesofway.org/dzidzilalich-r #Lushootseed #Duwamish #Suquamish #Muckleshoot #StreetName #StreetNames #NativeNames #NativeAmerican
