“the Indigenous world is a world of relationships built on reciprocity, respect, and responsibility, not just between humans but also extending to the entire natural”
Dina Gilio-Whitaker, As Long as Grass Grows: The Indigenous Fight for Environmental Justice, from Colonization to Standing Rock

“The demonstrators refused the term “protestors,” referring to themselves instead as “water protectors,” and their main organizing principle was peaceful prayer and ceremony.”
Dina Gilio-Whitaker, As Long as Grass Grows: The Indigenous Fight for Environmental Justice, from Colonization to Standing Rock

“The first climate refugees in the US are the Biloxi Chitimacha people of Isle de Jean Charles, whose island home in southern Louisiana is being inundated due to rising sea levels. The relocation of the Biloxi Chitimacha people is also particularly complex, because it involves the relocation of an entire community, not just individuals.”
