THE INDIGENOUS FIGHT FOR GLOBAL SURVIVAL
We are joined in Solartopia by the great Indigenous activists PHYLLIS YOUNGand CHASE IRON EYES of the Lakota Nation.
And by long-time organizer DANNY PAUL NELSON of the Lakota People’s Law Project.
We start with a report from the Democratic candidates’ debate in Detroit, then rapidly hear from Phyllis on the deep spirituality of the Indigenous struggle to save our planet Earth.
Danny then explains much of the legal and political reality of the struggle against the murderous, illegal pipelines being imposed on native lands.
Chase explains the horrific military assault that still proceeds against the Indigenous peoples and their treaty rights.
We also discuss the coming of green energy to the rez, as especially pioneered by the late great Bob Gough.
This sacred hour is full of wisdom and guidance for a species at the brink of extinction. Don’t miss it.
