The struggle for Black liberation and Indigenous sovereignty are intertwined because they are both centered on self-determination and autonomy. Both peoples have faced oppression and violence at the hands of colonial and racist institutions.

The two struggles, while not monolithic, are intersectional because of their shared histories of oppression, but also their shared histories of resistance and perseverance.
