@DavieDonaldson @byrnesong @NawkenKnowledge @scotcivictrust Yes, longstanding association within a territory reinforces the legitimacy of any claim to be 'indigenous', irrespective of the starting point (Lipott, Sigrid, 'Best Practice and the EU'). The rights of Nackens will always draw my full support.

169 Cross Green Lane has been our home for over 14 years, but has always been rented.
With help from @LankellyChase, buying our building put it in our members hands as an asset and symbol of resistance. Thank you.
Gypsies and Travellers are visible, proud and not going anywhere

Do you make music or work in other ways with Nawken (Scottish Traveller) culture? As part of

Davie will be presenting at this, exploring how today’s climate change impacts are magnified by historical environmental injustice and colonial legacies, which have heightened the vulnerability of human and other living systems.
English
Colonial labelling of our people by the Settled community has led to friction and tension over self identification, which has served to divide rather than connect people, issues and communities. This is a well recognised pattern for indigenous peoples across the world.
