Indigenous Justice

Through RJIP/IJ, we are building a powerful movement of system-involved Native peoples inside and outside institutions working to end the centuries-long imprisonment of our people, ancestors, relatives, and land. We are working to end the incarceration of living native peoples in jails, prisons, and group homes across the state, to end the incarceration of our Salmon relatives impacted by dams on our rivers, and to end the incarceration of our ancestors' skeletons locked away in basements of universities. We are doing this through developing powerful indigenous leaders and communities and organizing with them to transform the systems, structures, and stories that keep us all imprisoned both physically and spiritually.Over the past 4 years, we’ve made concrete progress towards our goal of liberating, defending, and decolonizing our food systems, ancestors, and current living relatives.Through our umbilical cords we are connected to the salmon nation, and as we are interconnected through this reciprocal relationship. We could not survive unless all are in balance.As’ waterAllis’ salmon Justice!Is’ personIssi wa all that is sacred from the beginning of timeaˑl̓ú umbilical cordaˑl̓uˑwít cord placeÁˑlúwí (alt) SalmonWe commit to our healing and transformation, fully and unilaterally.To share our joy, sister, joy.Justice!
