Land Back - A Yellowhead School Online Course (learnonline.yellowheadinstitute.org)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by SteveKLord to c/landback
 

An open access online course about the ways Canada dispossesses Indigenous people of the land -- and the strategies communities are using to get it back.

This seven-module online course from the Yellowhead School is based on the Yellowhead Institute Red Paper, Land Back.

In this course, you will learn about the scope of land dispossession in Canada, historically and in the present, as well as examples of resistance that result in the enforcement of Indigenous models of consent. The course also considers the future of the Land Back movement with reference to climate activism and solidarity with non-Indigenous communities.
