Partnerships & Projects

Maya and Indigenous legal advocates make a huge difference in immigration courts. Indigenous people forced to migrate face consistent civil and human rights violations in immigration proceedings and detention. 

We work to protect our languages and also provide language classes across borders to help Indigenous migrants maintain ties to their home communities after they are forcibly removed.

Indigenous peoples are still forcibly removed from our ancestral homelands. We fight against these genocidal actions and fight for our right to stay home and right to not migrate. Our voice is critical to migrants' rights movements as we offer decolonial perspectives often erased.

We support ICWA and the expansion of these protections. Stealing Native children and holding Indigenous kids in cages are acts of genocide.

We are water and land protectors. The Black Snake (petroleum pipeline) we fought at Standing Rock's NoDAPL actions is a threat that crosses borders and requires transnational approaches.

The heart of our efforts of recovery are rooted in our relationships, staying on the land, traditional knowledge, and practices. We promote rematriation and recovery of our kinship ties based in our cosmovision. We are still here and we belong.
