Five hundred years of European colonialism, which produced capitalist economic and social relations, has nearly destroyed life itself. “The Red Nation has given us The Red Deal, an Indigenous Peoples’ worldview and practice that leads to profound changes in existing human relations. “ The Red Deal asserts that the fight for climate justice must center Native people when it comes to the issues that disproportionately impact Native communities, but it also communicates what the Green New Deal does not - namely, that public lands are stolen lands and climate change is significantly caused by just a few industries,which the government has at worst neglected to hold accountable and at best assisted in their efforts to mine the earth for resources in a move that put profits over people.” - Teen Vogue
