- Libisema: 1
- Hi, I'm Dennis Banks, one of the founders of AIM. In 1968, we formed AIM in Minneapolis to combat police harassment and systemic issues faced by American Indians, and to "cruise the streets of the section of Minneapolis where Indians congregated, watching for incidents of harassment".
- AIM quickly spread to other cities as well, and "By late 1969, AIM had a national structure of chapters in cities with substantial Indian populations."
- Libisema: 2
- Hi, I'm Clyde Bellecourt, another founder of AIM. We founded this movement because we need a national structure to address the issues faced by our communities everywhere
- The goal of AIM is to primarily focus on addressing the immediate needs of Native Americans and advocate for broader systemic changes.
- As well as that, "AIM sought a universalistic Indian religion to legitimatize its pan-Indian ambitions"
- Libisema: 3
- We also aimed to bring meaningful changes to the quality of life for Native Americans through education, housing, and job-training projects; "AIM is active in job-training, health and housing projects and worked for the adoption in 2007 of a United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People".
