Land Back - More than just a Movement - Joseph Lee
Update: 2025-09-30
Description
The global Land Back movement is a collective and deeply rooted effort by Indigenous communities to reclaim ancestral lands that were taken through colonization, forced removal, and broken treaties. Far beyond a call for restitution, Land Back is about restoring sovereignty, cultural revitalization, and environmental stewardship. It is a continuous and evolving struggle to reassert Indigenous rights and reaffirm the sacred, reciprocal relationship between people and the land—a relationship that has sustained ecosystems for millennia.
