The Movement to Address the Theft of Tribal Territory

In this new publication, John Feffer examines the growing Land Back movement in the United States, tracing efforts by Indigenous nations to reclaim stolen land and restore sovereignty, environmental stewardship, and cultural practices. Through case studies, the piece explores the legal, political, and economic pathways through which land is being returned, as well as the limits of market-based solutions and charitable transfers. Situating contemporary land-back efforts within a long history of broken treaties and dispossession, the report highlights Indigenous leadership in environmental protection and climate justice amid renewed federal hostility to tribal sovereignty.
