================================================

Indigenous Peoples March in Washington DC on January 18, 2019.

IT STARTS WITH A MARCH…#IPMDC19

The Indigenous Peoples Movement is a collective of Indigenous 
activists, organizers, Tribal leaders, social entrepreneurs, artists, 
educators, innovators, youth leaders, and change-makers who are 
working to build the collective power of Indigenous Peoples, 
communities and Nations.

On January 18, 2019, we are uniting the Indigenous Peoples across the 
world to stand together to bring awareness to the injustices affecting 
Indigenous men, women, and children. Indigenous people from North, 
Central and South America, Oceania, Asia and the Caribbean are a 
target of genocide. The Indigenous Peoples March will be the first 
International march of its kind - this is history in the making!

Currently, many Indigenous People are victims of voter suppression, 
divided families by walls and borders, an environmental holocaust, sex 
and human trafficking, and police/military brutality with little to no 
resources, nor awareness of this injustice.

We Must Unite and Help!!

We are inviting a ‘call to action’ for defenders of human and 
environmental rights to join us, in Washington DC, in front of the 
Office of Interior Affairs on January 18, 2019, at 8am (which is the 
day before the Women's March, 19.1.2019, 
https://www.womensmarch.com/2019). This will be the first step of 
uniting our communities, tribes and nations in a universal cry for 
justice from the grassroots level and up. This march is the beginning 
of building strong coalitions to make our homes, families, and lands a 
safe, protected, and a clean place to live.

The goal of The Indigenous Peoples Movement coalition is to eliminate 
the borders of our injustices, as it all starts with us! Whether it is 
asserting our inherent treaty rights to protect and manage traditional 
land, waterways, or to engage in our traditional knowledge, the 
Indigenous grassroots action is organized and strong!

The Washington DC inaugural march will also explore the challenges and 
possible solutions to revitalize Indigenous Peoples’ identities and 
encourage the protection of their rights in or outside of their 
traditional territories.
