An Act of Conscience

Native Land Reparation - An Act of Conscience

“Native land reparation involves efforts to address historical injustice from colonization, forced displacement, cultural genocide, and other forms of oppression. It seeks to amplify the voices of Indigenous communities and advance the cause of justice and reconciliation for past wrongs committed against them.”

– Lewis Randa, Founder of NLRP

Native Land Reparation Pledge Project

The spirit behind The Native Land Reparation Pledge is rooted in the awareness that the land we live on was, in nearly all cases, forcibly taken from Indigenous Peoples over the centuries.

We, being the beneficiary of this wrongful act, have an opportunity to make reparation by allocating a small percentage of our home’s sale, when the time comes, to the tribe or territory on which the property is located.

Charitable giving this is not. Reparation explicitly seeks to make amends for injustices done in times past. We hope this will become the norm for all home sales across the United States of America/Turtle Island.

How It Works

By signing the Pledge, individuals agree, when the time comes to sell property, to contribute 1% (or more if inspired to do so) of the sale price of a home or property to the native community whose land you now own and from which you will financially benefit. In the absence of an Indigenous presence for that land, the option to contribute instead to a native led organization would also be possible.
