Repair & Rematriate
We understand colonization not as a historical event, but an ongoing reality. As such, we are committed to addressing and repairing the harms it has caused to Indigenous peoples, land, and communities. Our vision, however, extends beyond repairing harm as we also seek to help cultivate a future for collective thriving.
To this end, we are also committed to rematriaton, described by Crystal Cavalier-Keck as “a spiritual and political act of reconnection, one that reclaims Indigenous worldviews where land is not as property but as kin, where leadership emerges from responsibility, not hierarchy, and where women are the carriers of life, law, and legacy.” ______________

We are developing a land justice fund which offers pathways to redistribute resources and wealth, accumulated (directly or indirectly) from privilege and power gained from colonization and genocidal policies, to Indigenous-led organizations for the purpose of rematriation.

We are partners with an inter-cultural coalition to defend and heal the Sacred Peaks (the so-called San Francisco Peaks) from wastewater pollution and exploitation by commercialized recreation and development. To learn more about this issue and the work of the coalition, visit defendthepeaks.org.
