Join us for this participant led workshop that will discuss the various roles of migrants within the Indigenous Rights Movement. From exploring the history of the American Indian Movement (AIM) and Standing Rock, as well as various land occupations; this exploration of solidarity is meant to both empower and remind, to enrage and push. With a militant and decolonial lens we will analyze our own placement in the power dynamics of settler colonialism, and ask ourselves how we can (and already are!) protecting the sacred.

Acompañanos a este taller que será liderado por los participantes. Se discutirá sobre las diversas funciones de los migrantes dentro del movimiento de derechos indígenas. Exploraremos la historia de el Movimiento de Derechos Para Gente Indigena y Standing Rock, así como varias otras ocupaciones de terreno. Esta exploración de la solidaridad está destinada a empoderar y recordar, a enfurecer y empujar. Con un lente militante y decolonial, analizaremos nuestra propia colocación en la dinámica de poder del colonialismo, y nos preguntaremos cómo podemos seguir protegiendo lo sagrado.
