Indigenous Justice

Indigenous justice means safety, self determination and assertion of rights for all Indigenous peoples. We are a decolonial Indigenous Women’s founded organization. We are future sovereign nation builders, and community led Indigenous justice is Indigenous resistance.

Through Indigenous Justice, we are building a powerful movement of system-involved Native peoples inside and outside institutions working to end the centuries-long imprisonment of our people, ancestors, relatives, and land. We are working to end the incarceration of living native peoples in jails, prisons, and group homes across the state, to end the incarceration of our Salmon relatives impacted by dams on our rivers, and to end the incarceration of our ancestors' skeletons locked away in basements of universities. We are doing this through developing powerful indigenous leaders and communities and organizing with them to transform the systems, structures, and stories that keep us all imprisoned both physically and spiritually.
