Native American Activist Winona LaDuke: It's Time to Move On from Fossil Fuels
Native American Activist Winona LaDuke: It's Time to Move On from Fossil Fuels Wiwox 4 Views • 8 months ago

http://democracynow.org - While Democracy Now! was covering the Standing Rock standoff earlier this month, we spoke to Winona LaDuke, longtime Native American activist and executive director of the group Honor the Earth. She lives and works on the White Earth Reservation in northern Minnesota. She spent years successfully fighting the Sandpiper pipeline, a pipeline similar to Dakota Access. We met her right outside the Red Warrior Camp, where she has set up her tipi. Red Warrior is one of the encampments where thousands of Native Americans representing hundreds of tribes from across the U.S. and Canada are currently resisting the pipeline’s construction.

If you would like to speak about the possibility of me running a workshop or speaking at an event please get in touch via email: rowanellisyoutube@outlook.com.


___WORKSHOPS___

I facilitate tailor made workshops, designed to give participants a variety of discussion opportunities, interactive elements, and a final longer task individually or as part of a group.

The goal of my workshops is that participants come out of the them with actionable points to be put into practice afterwards, rather than feeling as if they had simply talked through the same old topics on that subject.
