"The red handprint in the MMIW campaign is not just a symbol, but also a profound expression of loss, injustice, and pain endured by Indigenous women. It's not merely an image, but carries with it stories, history, and the collective struggle of an entire community.
Symbol of Loss and Violence: Each red handprint represents an individual, a life, and a story. It's a symbol of Indigenous women who have gone missing or been murdered, and their loved ones who still feel they cannot find justice or resolution.
Reminder of Unity and Support: The red handprint also symbolizes the unity and support from the community. It fosters widespread awareness of this issue and calls for support, sharing, and understanding from everyone.
Promoting Social Awareness: By using the red handprint in such campaigns, advocates aim to raise social awareness about MMIW. This can lead to policy changes, governmental attention, and a sense of responsibility from society.
Symbol of Resilience and Strength: The red handprint also represents the resilience and strength of Indigenous women. Despite facing numerous challenges and dangers, they remain steadfast and powerful in their struggle for justice and safety for their community.
Overall, the red handprint is not just a symbol, but also a manifestation of a long-term struggle and a call for justice and human rights for Indigenous women."
