DoppingSeeds is our answer to DEcolonizing: Medicine and this shirt is a tool to spread this message. 


According to Webster, Decolonization is defined as “to free from colonial status,” however, that is only Step 1 of many. The next steps {that are currently happening} include deconstructing the thoughts, preferences and values that derive from a colonial way of thinking… and then rebuilding our current social structures. Naming a street or putting a face on a coin is only surface solutions to 500+ years of white, patriarchal, settler colonial laws that are the pillars to the structures of society in the Americas.

Description

What is Decolonize?

Decolonize is a “cultural, psychological, and economic freedom” for Indigenous people. The goal is to achieve Indigenous sovereignty.  A right for Indigenous people to practice self-determination over their land, cultures, political and economic systems.

Colonialism is a historical and ongoing global project. Settlers continue to occupy land, dictate social, political, and economic systems. As well as exploit Indigenous people and their resources.

Settler colonialism is the continued occupation, exploitation, and destruction of land traditionally stewarded by Indigenous people. Genocide of Indigenous peoples is perpetuated by structures of white supremacy, heteropatriarchy, racism, and capitalism. What is decolonization, why is it important, and how can we practice it?
