September/October 2020: The Land Back Issue – Briarpatch Magazine

By A Mystery Man Writer

In our special 60-page Land Back issue, we address how to return land in so-called Canada to Indigenous Peoples, and encourage the flourishing of Indigenous laws, life, and governance on those territories. Inside, you'll find a timeline of 100 years of land struggle; essays on overlapping Indigenous jurisdiction, sex work, Land Back in the city, protecting Black and Indigenous trans women, and land as a social relationship; a round-table discussion with Indigenous women hunters; an investigation into the Canadian government's efforts to circumvent the Wet'suwet'en Hereditary Chiefs' consent; and visionary fiction about decolonizing Wood Buffalo National Park.
