Indigenous Land Back Movement

The Indigenous Land Back Movement advocates for restoring control of land to Indigenous peoples who have historically been dispossessed through colonization and government policies. It seeks acknowledgment of Indigenous sovereignty, respect for ancestral territories, and the rectification of land injustices. The movement aims to address historical wrongs by promoting land return, reclamation, and recognition of Indigenous rights, fostering greater self-determination and cultural preservation. It is part of broader efforts to rectify colonial legacies and honor treaties and Indigenous connections to the land.
