The Red Ma'at Collective operates throughout Tkarón:to with profound gratitude to the land, its rightful stewards, and the ancestors who have resisted colonial violence for generations. We acknowledge these lands stolen from our Indigenous kin—the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, the Wendat, and the many First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples—recognizing the immense wealth unjustly amassed through their dispossession. We also honour our Black ancestors who were forcibly brought here in chains, their labour exploited to construct what is now called Canada. Bearing witness to generational trauma and ongoing harm, we commit ourselves to the critical work of dismantling the systems of oppression that continue to marginalize and harm both Indigenous and Black communities.

We stand firmly in solidarity with the Land Back movement, Indigenous sovereignty, and global Indigenous movements such as Free Palestine, Free Sudan, Free Congo, and Free Tigray, recognizing our interconnected histories of resistance against colonialism, genocide, and displacement. Dedicated to healing justice and decolonization, we strive to build a future where Black and Indigenous peoples thrive in their fullness and autonomy. Rooted in our unwavering commitment to justice, we pledge to continue learning from the land, deepening our relationships with Indigenous kin, and working collectively toward liberation.
