The struggle of the original nation continues in various regions of the world today. The Original Nation Approaches to Inter-National Law (ONAIL) was proposed to offer fundamentally differing interpretations and narratives of history, geography, politics, and the role of international law, ones in which the perspective of the nation is placed at the center of geopolitical analyses. ONAIL was devised to serve as a critical theoretical tool to explain and understand persistent global patterns of ethnocide and ecocide resulting from predatory policies of the state that continue to capture, occupy, oppress, and exploit original nations. ONAIL was proposed to promote cooperation and collaboration among diverse groups of individuals and organizations, including progressive political activists, human rights lawyers, feminist groups, academics, and most importantly, peoples of resisting original nations and autonomous communities. ONAIL exposed the history of the "state-making" and "nation-destroying" project and examined the original nation's powerful resistance in multiple regions in the world, including the Lakota Nation in North America; Okinawa, the southernmost island of Japan; the Kurdistan in the Middle East and its forced partition into Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran; the P'urhépecha Nation in the deep forest of Chiapas in southern Mexico; and the Cofán Nation in the Amazonian border of Ecuador and Colombia, among many others.
