Land in Our Names
A grassroots collective for land reparations in Britain
LION is Black-led collective committed to mobilizing a network of BAME land stewards, by striving for access to land and affirming the right to grow and live in safe, sustainable communities. In the UK, communities of colour are 60% less likely to be able to access green space and natural environments than their white counterparts. So LION recognizes the need for reparations in land ownership by connecting land and climate justice with racial justice.

People of colour in the UK with the desire to reconnect to land ownership, growing food and building resilience
Land in Our Names is disrupting oppressive land dynamics relating to BPOC communities in the UK. With events, podcasts, resources and more, LION is not only helping others understand the historically rooted problems that are present in land ownership in Britain, but also addressing the obstacles with practical solutions.
