in the Tallgrass Prairie
Indigenous-led Resiliency Hub
The Great Plains Action Society has liberated 1.05 acres of historically colonized and unhealthy land in Iowa City and is turning it into an urban Indigenous-led Resilience Hub—a living workshop for justice, healing, and economic reimagining! This is not just land back—it’s ReMatriation. It’s replacing extractive capitalism with compassion, community, and Indigenous futurism created by matriarchal thinking.
Niskíthe ToNwoN Ecovillage
Niskíthe Prayer Camp is a cultural revitalization collective seeking to build an ecovillage near Lincoln, Nebraska for ceremonies, cultural activities, gardens, and housing for Lincoln’s urban Native population. The village will serve as a means of repairing the Sacred Hoop of Indigenous people broken by genocide and forced assimilation by allowing them to live and pray the way they want on lands of their own.
How Much Should I Contribute?
We encourage you to make a recurring, monthly contribution, considering your contribution to be a “real rent” or “voluntary land tax” that represents an ongoing acknowledgement that you are living on stolen land.
While you ultimately should choose to contribute an amount that makes the most sense for your own circumstances, you may wish to consider choosing something of symbolic meaning:
If you are of modest means, consider a contribution of $270/year ($22.50/month) to represent the 270 million acres of Indigenous land given for free by the US government to white people as part of the 1862 Homestead Act.
If you are comfortable, consider a contribution of $160/month to represent the 160 acres of Indigenous land given to individual white families by the US government as part of the 1862 Homestead Act.
Or another amount that you choose — the sky is the limit!
