Here, Nick Tilsen talks about the vision and mission of the NDN. In this moment, we must dream the Indigenous dream. The NDN Collective is a new organization, launching on Indigenous Peoples Day, 2018.
#NDN COLLECTIVE HOW TO#
Climate Justice is our vision that teaches us how to move in honest and bold ways, connected with what is occurring everywhere, in all of our homelands and communities, down here on the surface of the Earth, under the forces of unknown weather.
Justice, from Latin meaning “righteousness, equity, upright, just”, is a question, a spiritual imperative to find alignment between action and grounded connection. While the NDN Collective funds national efforts, it intentionally prioritizes grassroots, community-based efforts. Where BIPOC collective liberation is at the core. Climate is the understanding that these weather realities shape how life unfolds down here on the surface of the Earth. It is a future where Black reparations and Indigenous LANDBACK co-exist. Climate insists on humility as we welcome change demands we bow in reverence to our grief and rage as we migrate, adapt and innovate.
Calling all Indigenous frontline organizers, action takers, and movement.
What if the best times are ahead of us? What if the only “back” we’re going towards is back into our bodies, into our ancestral ways, into our spirits, into the Earth? What if we could imagine again? Dream again?Ĭlimate asks us how we want to weather the future it’s about the rain, the heat, the sun, and the wind. NDN Collective is a national organization dedicated to building Indigenous power.
