For many Cascadians, we feel it is morally irresponsible to remain a part of a government built upon slavery, genocide, torture and systemic racism and whose colonial borders do not reflect the cultural or ecological boundaries, or the history and context of the many nations of our home. We feel anyone who does not actively work and want to distance and remove themselves from these systems of power actively support it - whether through passive structural violence or actively through their tax dollars.

To these ends, the Cascadia movement builds greater understandings of our bioregion, grows our democratic institutions, works with first nations for truth and reconciliation, promotes place appropriate technologies and policies, provides direct funding for community projects, educate about bioregionalism, and supports the creation of watershed based centers to determine the carrying capacities and regenerative frameworks for each watershed and bioregion we live in.
