The Cedar Campaign
Colonialism disrupted our trust. We are rebuilding it.
#LateralTrust
RESTORING TRUST
Lateral violence is one of the most painful legacies of colonialism in Indigenous communities. It shows up as gossip, shaming, gatekeeping belonging, infighting, and the quiet conflicts that erode trust from the inside.
The Cedar Campaign invites you to wear a cedar bough as a visible, everyday commitment to building lateral trust: the relational trust that grows when we communicate with transparency, honour every person's belonging, and hold ourselves accountable to one another with care.
The Story
Indigenous Peoples lived within relational accountability systems refined over thousands of years. Discover our roots and our journey.
The Pledge
Commit to building lateral trust. Wear the cedar bough as a visible promise to communicate with transparency and care.
