Pan-Indianism

Common card · No. 395790

Pan-Indianism is a philosophical and political approach promoting unity and, to some extent, cultural homogenization among different Indigenous groups in the Americas regardless of tribal distinctions and cultural differences. This approach to political organizing is primarily associated with Native Americans organizing for social justice and cultural revitalization in the Continental United States but has spread to some other Indigenous communities as well, especially in Canada. Inuit and Métis people may consider themselves part of the broader pan-Aboriginal community or some variation thereof. Some academics have also used the term pan-Amerindianism to distinguish from other peoples known as "Indians." Some pan-Indian organizations seek to pool the resources of Native groups to protect the interests of indigenous peoples across the world.
