Talk: Nick Estes and Dallas Goldtooth, "Environmental, Activist, and Indigenous Energies"

Link / Additional Info

This event brings together Indigenous activist-scholars to foreground the Indigenous lands and nations on the front lines not just of the climate crisis but also of collective actions seeking different futures. As the climate crisis continues to be fueled by energy extraction and an inability on the part of nation states and corporations to divest from capitalism, we focus in on Indigenous resistance movements to protect the environment. We ask: what are the forms of activism and collective organizing that are shaping Indigenous movements for lands and waters? Where do activist energies intersect with artistic and scholarly ones? We hope this conversation reflects both on the urgency of energy crises as well on long-standing Indigenous collective energies. Tickets are free for this event; public welcome! RSVPs are not required, but appreciated, as they help us anticipate attendance numbers.
