It is not nearly common enough knowledge that most Native tribes in the U.S. don't actually own all of the land within their reservation. There are millions of acres of reservation land that tribes don't legally own and they have no control over how that land is used. Like, there are a lot of different concepts tied in with the land back movement, but a major one is literally just getting reservation land back into tribal ownership.
So we know land back is Indigenous sovereignty Native agency and Indigenous stewardship yes. Land back is them respecting treaties they promised to respect ages ago but didn’t. Land back is them respecting the agreements they made with sovereign nations but broke instead. Land back is us going back to our ancestral lands. Land back is referring to Indigenous land by native names not colonizer ones. Land back isn’t a ethostate or deporting people Or whatever fever dream settlers have that’s cuz of settler colonizer projection and guilt.
“If you're American, you've almost certainly heard about how Indigenous reservations were and are located on whatever land the US doesn't want anyway. That they're just a way to whisk away undesirables until the land becomes useful to the US. That's the two-state solution.”
Two state solution is living side by side with people that tried to exterminate you with land theft genocide ethnic cleansing and settler colonialism When we say land back We mean all land stolen by settler colonizers Not just half of it to appease colonizers or respectability politics
“it’s worth mentioning that the proposal of a “two-state solution” is exactly what was offered to the Indigenous peoples of the Americas by European settler colonizers as a peaceful way to coexist.”
Land back. Indigenous 🪶 agency, sovereignty, and stewardship. All land back. Turtle Island, Hawaiʻi, Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), Sisam Moshir (Ainu term for mainland Japan), Ryukyu/Luchu (Okinawa), Samoa, Guahan (Guam), Papua, Éire(Ireland), Alba (Scotland), Borikén (Puerto Rico), Maohi Nui (French Polynesia of Tahiti Bora Bora and Marquesan Islands,) Aotearoa (New Zealand), Palestine Etc. Etc. End to all settler states.

Okay but do people know that ACT UP made a gaint condom and put it over Jesse Helms house? If not here’s a picture of it.
“Ann Cvetkovich writes: “What if depression, in the Americas, at least, could be traced to histories of colonialism, genocide, slavery, legal exclusion, and everyday segregation and isolation that haunt all of our lives, rather than to be biochemical imbalances?” I’d like to change the word “depression” here to be all mental illnesses. Cvetkovich continues: “Most medical literature tends to presume a white and middle-class subject for whom feeling bad is frequently a mystery because it doesn’t fit a life in which privilege and comfort make things seem fine on the surface.” In other words, wellness as it is talked about in America today, is a white and wealthy idea.”

There is a continual need for funds to buy food, water, and medicine, but Israel's destruction of infrastructure in Gaza means that jobs are nearly nonexistence.

something i think that more anarchists (and really any radicals/leftists whatever) in the US context should think about is how to respond to grand juries when a grand jury happens in your organizing community and people start getting subpoenas. grand juries are a tool of state repression that are used to try to build felony cases against people. they happen in complete secret, where no one is allowed inside the courtrooms, even lawyers, and as a result, create situations where people start snitching and informing on each other, often without even realizing that the information they are sharing can implicate their comrades.
I, and many other anarchists, believe that if you are involved in organizing and protesting, that you have a responsibility to your community to refuse to testify as a witness for a grand jury. this almost always means jail time for contempt of court (for up to 18 months max) as a result, which is definitely a large sacrifice, but is something i believe is so fucking important when it comes to keeping our communities safe. this also means that our communities need to be prepared to offer robust support to our comrades who are sacrificing so much to keep our communities safe. we need to never abandon people to fight state repression alone.
i think that it is really important for people to start thinking through what their response would be to getting subpoenaed for a grand jury way before you get in a position where you're taking action or participating in communities where this might be a concern. and if you start learning about grand jury resistance and realize that that the logistics of resistance feel impossible for you to actually be able to do, i don't think that's something that you need to feel shame about. but i do think that then means you need structure your organizing and protesting life in such a way where you are not involved in communities that are taking felony-level risks. i cannot emphasize enough how unacceptable it is to become an informant for the state, and even if you tell yourself you're not going to give away any implicating or private information, any information you give to prosecutors helps them map networks and build cases. i really do think that we all have a moral obligation to keep each other safe, and when people participate in state repression and testify in grand juries, they are throwing their comrades under the bus to save themselves at the expense of their comrades freedom.
i'll link some resources to learn more and share a quote from Katie Yow, a grand jury resistor in 2017.
"The state demeans everything that we hold dear when they threaten us in this way. The most free and wild thing we have in this world is our love for each other, and we know that our health, our safety, and our liberation can only exist in a world without their cops, their courts, and their cages. Our strength lies in knowing that we can provide that for each other, and that nothing they offer or threaten is worth betraying our commitment to our communities.
“As state repression escalates, I know that all of us are struggling with the trauma and the grief that comes from the forces we fight against, and the vulnerability that we feel to the state in its despicable efforts to attack us. What I also know, what I believe with all my heart and everything I have, is that we have the strength we need to take care of each other and to fight back until we win.”- Katie Yow

Surviving a Grand Jury from Crimethinc
If she dies, remember how many times I begged you to help her, how many nights I wrote through tears asking for mercy while she suffered beside me.
My tears have run dry, and my time is up. My sister is leaving me, and I am powerless to save her. Your silence is the only thing that is killing her.
I am sick and exhausted in Gaza, and I choose to be strong for the sake of the terrified while I wither before our eyes. We are drowning in fear.
Please donate if you can. Your donation will enable me to buy medicine for my sister , and it will save her, save me, and save my whole family. Our lives are at stake from hunger, disease, and anemia, and it will end the constant pain. || Chuffed
I'm sitting thinking They told us the ceasefire in exchange for the handover of the Israeli prisoners back Stay quietly, and there is a house next to us not to 50 meters awayIt is bombarded with firebelts Where is the ceasefire at this stage? The International Court considers Where is international law?!
They told us to open the crossing by passing aid, but I see nothing but famine and high prices I burned my hands because of the fires They lied to us! They betrayed us! They're the worst people in the world They didn't provide us with even the slightest elements of life
Guys, honestly, I'm asking people for help, but I can only see the disregard. I'm tired of this situation guys the prices are too high And I can't even provide food For my family, If time goes on like this, maybe we can't live it So stand with me even once and donate to me, please Don't forget that we are in Gaza

People outside Gaza think that the war against us is over, and that we are living in peace and tranquility, but they do not know that the war is still ongoing.
The bombing, death, hunger, and displacement do not stop for a single moment. What has actually stopped is the world's interest, questions, and follow-up. We do not know if they have grown tired of us and become accustomed to our tragedy, or if the media has deceived them and contributed to misleading them!
Be the alternative media, do not forget Gaza, do not get tired of it, and do not stop talking about it, for whoever does not care about the affairs of people is not one of them!!
Don't overthink helping families in Gaza; participation makes a difference in their lives, and donating makes a big difference.
Here are some families from Gaza who need help.
Help Mahmoud's family from here
Help Karim's family from here
