From lesson 4: 'You are on Native Land'

On land back; Karen Pugliese

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karyn_Pugliese

"At my Nation, we agreed that we would never dispossess people the way that we were dispossessed so we are willing to negotiate. We want a fair chunk of our land back, we want Crown Lands back and we want to be able to have control, self government and [to] develop them."

Her wish list includes; 'Self Government', 'Land claims settled', and 'Families to be made whole again'.

This seems to be very different than what Settler Canadians imagine what #LandBack is. Perhaps this is because we don't understand how dispossessed people could ever be magnanimous, or have forgiveness and generosity to those who have dispossessed them. A guilt underlies the systemic blockages, in my view, of meaningful consideration to #landback.

The mentality of dispossession as a way of protecting colonialist settler rights to use lands to extract resources could be at the heart of what sickens us today and prevents action to heal and restore lands, air and waters. #wecandobettercanada

Do we really want to forever be in charge of what Indigenous People can or cannot do? Do we actually think they have no rights to the land their People have inhabited for generations before our ancestors arrived? Do we want to traumatize, destroy families and keep them apart?

Do we want 'RECONCILIATION'? That is the question we must answer to move forward in this country. Until we do, perhaps we will stay stuck in never ending disputes, actions and court cases.
