Rethinking Thanksgiving: Solidarity with Indigenous Resistance

On this webinar we hear from Krystal Two Bulls (NDN Collective, LANDBACK Campaign), Jean-Luc Pierite (North American Indian Center of Boston), Khury Petersen-Smith, Mea Johnson (Indigenous Environmental Network, North American Indian Center of Boston), Annie Banks, Julia Tasuil, Kazi Toure and Jaan Laaman (Jericho Movement) about Indigenous-led frontline movements to resist violence and colonization fueled by the current extractive economic system and gather ways to further and deepen solidarity with Indigenous resistance.

This webinar is an invitation to interrogate so-called thanksgiving, and move beyond the myths of USA history with Indigenous People on Turtle Island. From tar sands pipelines across Turtle Island to Arctic oil and gas drilling, Indigenous campaigns of resistance continue to lead the way in protecting future generations against the destruction of sacred lands and waterways.
