    The exact specifics always depends on the material conditions and the needs of the colonized people the land is being returned to, but I think you've got the general gist of it down. When we talk about "self determination" regarding land back a lot of people tend to think about it abstractly, but land back is the physical material necessity for self determination. The same way that workers need to own the means of production, Indigenous peoples needs to own their land.
