Our Vision: Empowering Thought Leadership and Decolonization

Welcome to Empire First Nation, a 100% Indigenous-owned lifestyle brand that stands at the intersection of culture, heritage, and activism. Our tagline, "The collective influence empowering thought leadership and decolonization," encapsulates our mission and values.

Who We Are

At Empire First Nation or EFN, we are more than just a brand; we are a movement. Our journey began with a desire to spark conversation, and to empower thought leadership by Indigenous and non-Indigenous folks throughout Turtle Island.

We recognize the importance of addressing critical issues like decolonization, sovereignty, land back, and nationhood. These topics may be weighty, but they are essential discussions that pave the way for a brighter future.

Our Inspiration

Each of our designs is a testament to the collective influence we believe in. We draw inspiration from the strength, resilience, and rich heritage of Indigenous peoples. Through our clothing and accessories, we aim to weave together aesthetics and activism, creating pieces that are not only visually captivating but also convey powerful messages about reconciliation, unity, and solidarity.

What We Stand For

  1. Decolonization: We are committed to dismantling colonial structures and promoting Indigenous sovereignty. We believe that decolonization is a necessary step towards healing and justice.

  2. Sovereignty: Empire First Nation advocates for the restoration of Indigenous sovereignty. We believe that Indigenous nations have the right to self-determination and self-governance.

  3. Land Back: We support the Land Back movement, which seeks to return land to Indigenous communities and honor Indigenous land rights.

  4. Nationhood: We celebrate the diverse cultures, languages, and traditions of Indigenous nations. Our designs pay homage to the richness of Indigenous heritage.

Our Collective Role

Empire First Nation is not just a brand; it's a platform for change. By wearing our products, you become a part of a larger movement towards reconciliation and a brighter future for all. Together, we can amplify Indigenous voices, challenge the status quo, and create a world where every voice is heard and every culture respected.
