Amid growing success in Indigenous-led #landback campaigns and triumphs over extraction, this session highlights the crucial link between land restoration and addressing collective trauma. It explores how #landback efforts can benefit from including Black and other marginalized groups, and critically examines if ‘call out culture’ hinders decolonization movements.

Moderated by Eriel Deranger, with Jodie Geddes and Carlee Loft, panelists will share practical strategies. These include an intergenerational focus, ceremony, and spending time on the land.
