Supporting indigenous media has never been more important. The world’s governments are treating the earth like a discount bin on Black Friday. They want to take as much as they can no matter the consequences. And now, with Donald Trump set to take office–not to mention the sharp rise of right-wing extremism in the United States–the world’s political climate is now set to go the way of climate change. It’s a runaway train and if we don’t do something, that train is going to fall off the tracks.
But all is not lost; because in resistance there is hope and no matter how things play out in the months ahead, the world’s Indigenous Peoples will continue to stand on the front lines to defend the earth.
Please support the ongoing work of Intercontinental Cry so that we can keep a light on for every indigenous nation that stands in the line of fire, including our close friends the Ngabe-Bugle in Panama, the U’wa in Colombia, the Maya in Guatemala, the Miskitu in Nicaragua, the Wixarika in Mexico and hundreds of others we still need to meet.

Across the world right now, Indigenous peoples are facing a renewed assault on their lands, rights, and ways of life.
From extractive industries pushing deeper into ancestral territories, to governments rolling back hard-won protections,
the threat is global—and it is growing.
What makes this moment especially dangerous is how little attention it receives.
Stories like this are disappearing in real time. Mainstream media
barely covers it and the coverage is fragmented. The public is left without the context
needed to understand what is truly at stake.
That is exactly why IC Magazine exists..
For more than 20 years, IC has reported on Indigenous struggles worldwide — consistently, independently, and without compromise.
We don’t follow news cycles; we trace patterns. We don’t sensationalize; we provide context.
And when the world looks away, we stay focused.
But this work is increasingly difficult to sustain.
We refuse to lock our reporting behind a paywall. We don’t sell access through subscriptions.
And we don’t answer to advertisers. IC Magazine survives solely because readers like you choose to
support independent Indigenous journalism.
Please donate today if you can. Every contribution helps us to continue this crucial work.
Thank you,
John Ahni Schertow
Founder and Editor in Chief
