And by Community Wealth Building, do you mean Land Back? Points of Relation between Land Back and Community Wealth Building

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Land Back and Community Wealth Building are two social movements countering extractive wealth accumulation structures and systems that continue to harm people and land while concentrating economic power and assets into the hands of the wealthy elite and away from communities. While vast differences could be exposed between movements, this research unearths points of relation driving and mobilizing movement action centering the themes of community, wealth, land, building and taking back. Through a systematic literature review this secondary qualitative research engages reciprocity through reflexivity and is grounded in Two-Eyed Seeing. Thematic analysis is engaged applying the Indigenous perspective of relationality along with the Western theory of interpretive frames to discuss the relations of people, land, ideas and the cosmos. These relational findings initiate bridges, ignite sparks and offer starting points to understand how relations could be strengthened, and reconciliation and allyship embraced by non-Indigenous settlers to collaboratively re-create a living and thriving future economy.
