Indigenous perspectives are often misrepresented in mainstream media. Through this project, people tell their stories in their own words, in content sourced directly from the creators—not filtered through mainstream institutions.
Included are blogs, magazines, videos, podcasts, tweets, newspapers, and other content from more than 1,000 organizations—authentic views of lived experiences, traditions, and activism.

Focus on new media
By focusing on new media channels, the project amplifies voices often overlooked by traditional collections, capturing contemporary Indigenous discourse in its immediacy and authenticity. The knowledge empowers people to challenge stereotypes, dismantle misinformation, and advocate for equity—making the resource a tool for driving change.
A mission to preserve
Approximately 200,000 pages are preserved in a permanent archive for future scholars and advocates. Included are the restored records of many organizations, significant in their times, that have ceased to exist due to loss of funding, political pressure, or censorship.
Prioritized is the preservation of at-risk content from regions where political instability, silencing, or systemic oppression threaten its survival—the voices of the Crimean Tatars, the Wet'suwet’en, and the Ainu are examples.
Indigenous Peoples Social Justice and Culture safeguards content against erasure, preserves history, and serves as a catalyst for understanding and honest dialogue. Critical stories and cultural expressions can endure as a testament to resilience and resistance.
