TAKING ACTION

First, find out whose land you're on:

WHO'S LAND ARE YOU ON?

Once you've found out whose land you're on, PAY THEM RENT! You can find where by googling the name of the Indigenous peoples' land you're on + "Pay rent." If you can't find a specific group to pay, pay a national organization like The National Indigenous Women's Resource Center. This is what I do -- I pay a monthly donation as rent for the Anacostian Land I live on.

Next, take a look at the recommendations by the 2015 Truth and Reconciliation Report here:

Begin learning about the genocidal history of the US and Canada (along with many other countries... Start here.)
