Sustaining the civil liberties, resistance, and durability of Indigenous Peoples is an investment in the future of humankind and all life on Environment.

We contact our area to remain to be daring in the work we do, to take care of ourselves and each other, to function collectively, and ground ourselves wherefore is coming, inspired by generations of resilient Indigenous Peoples. We’re in this together.
