When Being An Ally Turns Into Being An Appropriator: Settler Conduct and Self Check
by Xhopakelxhit Author
A no-bullshit gut-check on how settlers can effectively support indigenous movements, and how all of us can do better building together. Xhopakelxhit, a member of Ancestral Pride, (badass, grassroots, direct action land defenders from unceded Ahousat territory), sets this zine up as a primer for allies of indigenous liberation, offering direct feedback on how to join the fight without taking up too much space, speaking for people whose voices and experiences should be heard directly, or claiming an inappropriate degree of authority. The series of "self-check" questions at the center will help you pump the breaks before you privilege jumps out, but they also form a road map for meaningful, long-term involvement in our collective struggle.
15% of the proceeds will go to supporting Ancestral Pride.
