Cyclist Charged After Video Shows Her Attacking First Nations Woman For Not Wearing A Bra

\u201cYesterday evening I was attacked by a white woman who was upset I was wearing no bra. I utilized IG live to record her actions against me. I have never experienced a white mob chasing me and it\u2019s the scariest thing that\u2019s ever happened to me in my life. Please be safe out there\u201d

\u201cFirst of all, I want to say how overwhelmed and grateful I am to have received the love, support and kindness from strangers around the world. As an Indigenous woman, I embody the messages of survivorship through autonomy and sovereignty over my body everyday.\u201d

\u201cI choose not to fixate on the negativity and hope that these people will one day honour themselves by creating a safer world for all of us and for our future generations. The hyper-sexualization, aggressive jealousy and violence towards us is despicable for Canada\u201d

\u201cAgain, I\u2019m thankful to have had Ottawa to be a haven during times I desperately needed that change my life for the better - but once I became strong and resilient - it was as if this city failed the very creation I worked so hard for.\u201d
