    Reminder that indigenous activism has prevented the equivalent of 1/4 of America’s annual emissions. Their work is some of the most important in human history and it is succeeding in a way that literally no other group has

    There's this thing that I half understand where the Kkkanada set up a bunch of elected puppet chiefs that they pretend speak for the First Nations, while most nations have hereditary chieftains who represent a continuity of government predating kkkanada's imposition of elected chiefs. in this case the elected chiefs have sided with the colonizers while the hereditary chiefs are leading the opposition. I'm sure there's more complexity there but I don't know about it.

      To be fair, countries in so-called global south do this without much reporting in Canada if the atrocities are committed in the name of Canadian mining corporations. Just look to the Ethiopian state besieging Tigray and the silence of the Canadian media despite multiple Canadian mining companies operating in the region and profiting from the destabilization. https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/canada-and-the-war-on-tigray
