About Me

My name is Birdie Sam, I am a queer Tlingit Indigenous media creator. Welcome to my shop! All designs are based off of past content.

I began creating & donating masks at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. Gathering my social media marketing skills while building an online mask shop. Since transitioning to more of a content creator role, I have closed the mask shop and have been designing fun merch since! 

Since the summer of 2021, I have been making media content to advocate for Climate Action and to Amplify Indigenous issues. I am now exploring the world of videography and journalism by partnering with the independent newsletter: Popular.Info!

Come find me on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, BlueSky and Twitter

About the Designs

Be a Problem - My followers and I were discussing alternatives to traditional protesting, some can’t attend due to accessibility or kids. Or lack of covid protocols. But we strategized a range of actions for the online climate action community to take to amplify protests and help drive the overall climate conversation. 
Bully the Rich - In summer 2021 I had a series of videos about climate protests and oil executives get removed for “harassment and bullying” which caused me to make the joke Bully the Rich. It’s become a whole thing. 
Have Hope - Sometimes in climate action, things get heavy. It’s important not to become overwhelmed and to connect with community. But when hope is in short supply, there’s always spite. 
Land Back - This design came about when I responded to another troll who told me to go back to where I came from. 
Team Orca- Inspired by the rise in boat-tipping orcas. May Gladis enjoy every game of yacht hacky sack. 
Pride🏳️‍🌈 - Most of these designs are from when my followers and I responded to a "pride-themed call for art" from the oil company Enbridge. So we gave them art.
Repo the Church - Over the years I have talked a lot about the artifacts that specifically the catholic church refuses to return to indigenous tribes. 
Tree Hooker - An angry man called me a “tree hooker”… I sometimes wonder if it was a typo. But either way I wear it proudly.
