Decolonize To Liberate

A Working Group of Occupy/Decolonize Boston
(formerly the Indigenous Solidarity and Outreach Working Group)


As a signal to the national “Occupy” movement and to members of First Nations (Indigenous Peoples) who have felt excluded by the colonialist language used to name this movement, it shall be declared that “Occupy Boston” aspires to “Decolonize Boston” with the guidance and participation of First Nations.

[Excerpt from the Statement of Solidarity with Indigenous Peoples introduced by this working group and passed by the Occupy Boston General Assembly on October 8, 2011.  Read the full resolution, here.]


All are welcome to our regular weekly meetings.  Half of the meeting is discussion/self-education to help us decolonize ourselves (see our learning resources section).  Half of each meeting is for planning events and actions to help decolonize the movement. 


Meetings held each Friday, 5:00 - 7:30 PM
