Hundreds of Indigenous nations call North America home—and have since before the countries that make up the continent formed.

Indigenous peoples across North America have experienced centuries of struggle and resilience in the face of colonization and oppression. Their journey emphasizes the importance of connection to land, tradition, and community while challenging the narratives imposed by colonial powers.

Native to This Land uncovers the rich tapestry of Indigenous histories, highlighting the enduring spirit that continues to thrive. As Native nations navigate the complexities of identity, culture, and sovereignty, their experiences reflect a powerful story of survival and resistance. This examination of Indigenous rights shows an evolving landscape where the struggle for justice and self-determination is as crucial as ever.
