    LANDBACK

    This week, we're learning about the #Landback movement, given that the Thanksgiving holiday has just passed. It's important to note that we are not professional journalists, and we do broad coverage over this topic, think of it as an overall introduction, intended for those who are curious but have never really looked into it. It's an all too important subject. Finding research presenting an accurate portrayal of history on this subject is challenging. In the event that we failed to present an honest history, please reach out to werkplacecomedy@gmail.com and we will be ecstatic to learn from you, and correct ourselves.
