I’d love to see you speak to some of the indigenous ppls from every continent and show how American Indigenous struggle is everyone’s struggle. I’m definitely tuned in.

[@RedFlagRevival]

You're right, he did mention that this movement is global though.

[@Changeurselfchangetheworld]

ITS NOT EVERYONES STRUGGLE ITS THIER STRUGGLE.

[@ktk44man]

​​​​​​​@@Changeurselfchangetheworldindigenous people exist on every continent, and landback is not incompatible with the idea of colonizers participating in decolonization, it's just that colonizers don't really do it. But the tribulations of, the indigenous of Australia and Africa, for instance are equally as valuable as that of native Americans. Hell dude even the Irish are colonized. Landback involves solidarity, by virtue of that, Landback is for everyone

[@marialalasmith9562]

Wish we could have more conversations from North America to Central America & South America... WE NEED more unity than ever considering so many natural reserves are being burned down by global companies

[@noewantstosleep]

beautiful, the world needs indigenous wisdom now more than ever

Land back! Excited to watch this series. Land back is the only hope that everyone has to save our home (of course it is an indigenous led process and should be respected as such). I love listening to Madonna Thunder Hawk she is legendary and a huge inspiration and her enthusiasm is infectious. Thank you!

I so needed to hear this. Thank You, Madonna Thunder Hawk, and thank you, NDN Podcast, for interviewing her. Imagine if we had live interviews like this of some of our amazing leaders from the 1800s. Fortunately, we do have some of their words written down. Interviews like this with Madonna are invaluable. Her message about keeping it simple resonates and is fuel for what I needed today. I have some writings to complete to highlight issues of our people which include LandBack. Thank you so much.

I attended the 1980 Black Hills Gathering. Being non-Native, but knowledgeable and with friends as referral, I was assigned to security to deal with the hippies. 😅 Amazing experience. A lot of culture clash behind the scenes. Jokes aplenty. Wish I still had the poster, I probably gave it to someone. Tons of great speakers, and musicians, Native and non-. One of my favorite moments was meeting and chatting with Floyd Red Crow Westerman about his music. ❤ New subscriber ❤️💛🖤🤍

[@greeen0broccolli]

I love that Madonna Thunder Hawk talks about how arguments going back and forth get nothing accomplished. If you disagree with someone, you can still listen to them speak and be quiet. And after they speak, you can move on to what matters for ALL, and still keep your disagreement. Everyone's point should be heard.

What’s the best way to learn about land back? I live in upstate New York and don’t fully know what to say when people ask what it is I’m advocating for here when I talk about land back

[@RomyArms]

How can you advocate for something you don't know anything about?

[@ataraxia7439]

@@RomyArms That's why I want to know more about it!

[@invaderjaymz]

​@@ataraxia7439it seems silly that you say you advocate for it first, then learn what it is second. I bet you love lamp.

[@samiharb2643]

So glad I found this Movement & Podcast. 🙏🏽 Quick thought: I generally would never tell anyone what they should or shouldn't do so just a friendly & humble suggestion. Maybe we should all - especially all First Nations Peoples - stop calling them 'Indian Reservations'. That's just the European Colonizers euphemistic(lying) terminology that they use to lie to themselves & everyone else about what they actually are. Maybe we should all just start calling them what they really are & were always intended to function as by the lying, theiving, raping, murdering, colonizing culture itself - 'Concentration/Murder/Death Camps'. Like instead of saying: "I live on or in the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation", it would be far more appropriate & PC to say: "I live on or in the Pine Ridge Concentration/Murder/Death Camp"... or for brevity sake just Concentration Camp because the Murder/Death aspect is already fully implied right? I mean come on ppl. Even the term 'resevation' is synonymous with "preservation' which basically means a designated open area of land where the "Human Beings" can go "observe" and/or "hunt" the "Animals". I mean come on ppl. The word Reservation/Preservation literally means open-air zoo/hunting ground! Doesn't it? No disrespect at all to Pigs but to call one a Unicorn is not only inaccurate it's inappropriate. Indians... are from India. First Nations People... are not from India. Nor are they Indians. My brothers and sisters... my parents and children... if we want to be free we have to stop using the colonizing rape/murder culture's lying/theiving language. P.S.

@28:08 just before she answers, here's what I learned: George Custer resigned his commission in order to have a look at the Black Hills where it was speculated there was much gold (this is a recurring theme as speculation of there being gold in Georgia lead to the Trail of Tears). He didn't go into the hills as an officer, else it could be seen as an act of war (thus in this way a government-sponsored act of war was disguised as a non-government civilian venture). Upon his return & positive report of gold being in the hills he took up his commission once again. Subsequently he returned to the Black Hills with the idea of driving away the Indigenous folk in order for the U.S. Gov't to lay claim to the land. Well-known history shows us that Custer over-estimated his own abilties & under-estimated the number of Indigenous folk that he would eventually meet up with in those hills; nevertheless, other U.S. forces eventually came & started to press the Indigenous Peoples there again. I don't know if the gov't found much gold there or not, but land has value - resources &/or living space (which can generate revenue); so, no land is permanently safe from the ravenous wolves who often end up running the show within many governments worldwide. And people are often exploited as well by these greedy, powerful, &/or influential types. Now, I'll listen to her answer.

Truths #landback

[@invaderjaymz]

What if the government built houses on plots of land around canada and gave it to native people?

[@abbasotiot3709]

I so desire a matriarchal society here on turtle Island again. I want to know how to be a strong powerful woman which is not taught in white mans society today. My white ancestors weren’t thinking about there choices and how they would effect the generations beyond. For they were bringing down their own destruction. Clearly, the world would be a much better place if they wouldn’t have plundered the people of this land. One day this land will be returned back to its rightful owners that the Great Spirit HaYah Yahuwah our powerful buffalo Tatonka gave them. I don’t like what happened between both my red and white ancestors from the past but the scars of the past have made me who I am today. The past does not defined me, but it can help realign me into who I am to be for Creator now. I hate the evil not the skin tone that evil resides in for our battle is not with tribes or nations but rather with the trickster who influences the spirit within them all.

[@RedFlagRevival]

I'm a white male, and I totally agree that we should bring along a revolution that will empower women to bring fourth a better world. Powerful men of the world have been destroying everything that we should be respecting and loving, nature and each other.

Apologies. As one of the privileged Colonialist thieves who has inadvertently profited greatly from my side breaking all the treaties, and ghettoising natives, I recognize that if natives do not reclaim the best land, that has been stolen, natives will forever remain in the lower economic sections of our country. I do not apologize much for the past abuse that I was not a part of, but I do apologize for the future perpetual abuse that my Colonial side will inflict on natives who live under a Colonialist flag and religion. I hope natives rebel. I hate apologizing. It hurts the heart. BaaMaaPii

Not every Native support's Nik Tilsen or even knows or approves what he's doing. He's what you could call iktomi.

curious of why you think that?

[@takeitorleaveit.6333]

@@MikoSip I don't support AIM. And he's using the people of the Oglala Sioux Tribe for his own benefit. There's a video where he rushes up on the Rapid City police during a traffic stop of a Native person when it's none of his business, and he turns around and calls it racism. I don't support the way he operates. People can do whatever they want without representing the entire Tribe like we're all support that particular cause. Plus, his group NDN COLLECTIVE basically provoked some of the events he's claiming to be racism.
