Journalists’ word choices are shaped by colonialism. Here’s how The Tyee is changing that.
Our mission is to move from rhetoric to action, linking dialogue with praxis. Land acknowledgements are not land back. They are initial points of reckoning, of resistance and for activation. Here, we welcome you into this space by highlighting ongoing Indigenous advocacy projects alongside landback movements. Our work is rooted in advocacy, action, and change.
