Advocating for Indigenous Sovereignty
The land the United States resides on is stolen. Indigenous Nations were forcefully uprooted, cultures, languages, and lands were lost – and continue to be lost by the lasting effects of colonization. By advocating for Indigenous Sovereignty this campaign works to combat false narratives about Indigenous people by using historical U.S. figures and their actions.
