The Red Nation is a radical Indigenous led organization that focuses on the Sovereignty of and Land back for Indigenous Nations. On their website they lay out their basic foundational praxis employed by the organization:

We govern ourselves and our relations according to one simple philosophy: be a good relative.

Point 1: We demand freedom: We are self-determining peoples. We support other self-determining peoples who resist colonizers and US domination around the world. Only people power will determine our destinies.
Point 2: We demand dignity: Everyone deserves free housing, food, clean drinking water, education, mobility, employment, and healthcare. Everyone deserves spiritual freedom and a livable earth.
Point 3: We demand land back: Mother Earth belongs to nobody, rather we all belong to her. We must restore correct relations with Mother Earth because land is the basis of our livelihoods. Land must be returned to the original caretakers.
Point 4: Abolish policing: Cops are Indian killers. They are the foot soldiers of US occupation, racism, and misogyny. Cops police the poor and protect private property and the rich. Only we can protect ourselves.
Point 5: Women and gender-variant relatives lead the revolution: We must take back our power and humanity. Women struggle for and sustain the world. With Indigenous feminism there is no fascism. Without Indigenous feminism there is no freedom.

Point 6: The needs of the people come first: The world has enough resources for everyone. Scarcity is a myth. Capitalism is a for-profit, racist system where rich lives matter the most. We need a world where rich and poor people don’t exist.[1]
