Prior to IC Magazine, there was no independent media publication devoted to covering the Indigenous Peoples Movement, and providing a platform for them to tell their vital stories. Uncompromised by government or corporate funding, IC Magazine is now the place to go for accurate and accessible information about the present struggles of Indigenous Peoples. The growing grassroots support in the form of small donations from IC readers is testament to that.

Now, it is time for those with the capacity to become IC builders ($1000) to step forward so IC can expand its coverage with audio/visual productions, as well as continue its print and online publications. The foundation has been laid; help us build the infrastructure to bring you the best coverage possible.

Dear reader,

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
