We're less than a week away from launching our Land Back issue! But bc we can't wait, here's a special sneak peek at one article from the issue: @otipemsiw and @apihtawikosisan of Métis In Space on the mechanics of their #LandBack project. briarpatchmagazine.com/articles/view/…

IT'S FINALLY HERE! Six months in the making, our 60-page Land Back issue is online today. The issue addresses how to return land in so-called Canada to Indigenous Peoples, & encourage the flourishing of Indigenous laws, life, & governance on that land. briarpatchmagazine.com/issues/view/se…
