Red Dress Day (No More Stolen Sisters)[BPS cover]

Red dresses in the wind… We remember… Red dresses in the wind… We remember… Empty red dresses hanging on the trees Silent witnesses to lives taken too soon Sisters, daughters, mothers, Two-Spirit kin Stolen by violence beneath the same moon From the Trail of Tears to the Highway of Tears No more stolen sisters, no more stolen lives The Elohim Star Nation sees, the loss of sisters makes them cry They see everything — all the crimes of Earth humanity Red Dress Day is here, let the whole world recognize No more stolen sisters, hear the drumbeat cry We stand together — No more. No more. No more. Red handprints glowing on the drum we play Honoring the missing, lighting up the way For every relative whose light was dimmed We wear the red so their memory won’t end Across Turtle Island and under the stars above Indigenous women and girls deserve to be loved No more fear, no more silence, no more pain On this Red Dress Day we speak their names For all the stolen sisters… For all the families still searching… For every Two-Spirit relative… You are not forgotten. Come join us in this circle From the Trail of Tears to the Highway of Tears No more stolen sisters, let the red dresses fly The Elohim Star Nation sees every tear you cry They see everything — all the crimes of Earth humanity We rise together… No more. No more. No more. From the Trail of Tears to the Highway of Tears No more stolen sisters, let the red dresses fly The Elohim Star Nation sees every tear you cry They see everything — all the crimes of Earth humanity We rise together… No more.
