Imagining A New Earth 

September 1893, the United States opened the Cherokee Strip to settlers in the largest land rush in American history. 

Over 100,000 people stormed across 6.5 million acres of land that was never theirs to begin with.

Land that belonged to the Cherokee Nation. 

Land they were forced to sell for pennies under government pressure. 

Land that had already been stolen once during the Trail of Tears.

What was celebrated as “opportunity” for settlers was nothing more than legalized theft, another chapter in a long history of dispossession, betrayal, and erasure of Native people.

And here’s the thing: history repeats. We are still watching the same story play out, the rich and powerful hoarding land, money, and influence, while families are stripped of their homes, their healthcare, their pensions, their dignity and their futures. 

Politicians and Hollywood elites flaunt their power, abuse people, destroy lives, and when they finally land in prison, they still sit on mountains of stolen wealth.

If the U.S. government could once redistribute land stolen from Native people to settlers then we can absolutely redistribute the wealth of corrupt politicians, corporations, and power-hungry celebrities who built empires on exploitation. 

Don’t tell me it can’t be done. 

Don’t tell me the system can’t bend. 

It already has. 

It already did, just not for the people who truly needed it.

Every system built on stolen breath will one day choke on its own foundations. 

The reckoning is not a question of if, but when.

Imagining is the first step. Building is the next.
