“The state is the enemy of Indigenous peoples... Our freedom lies not in appealing to the state for recognition or rights, but in building our own power outside of it,” — Leanne Betasamosake Simpson.

True solidarity demands resourcing Indigenous freedom daily.

We think this photo beautifully sums up the work of Sogorea Te’ Land Trust. Despite obstacles, many put in place by outside forces beyond Indigenous peoples’ control, we continue moving forward with our work of rematriation.

This Moment Matters This is not symbolic. It is happening now, in real time. Youth are putting their bodies on the line to protect a sacred place. What happens here will shape what is allowed to proceed on Indigenous lands moving forward. Attention, pressure, and collective response can shift outcomes in moments like this. TOTECT THE RIA SACRED GROOND NOT MINI Water Protector Legal Collective Liked by sogoreatelandtrust and others waterprotectorlegal Lakota youth are currently locked down to drilling equipment at Pe' Sla in the Black Hills. Community members are gathered in prayer. Drilling is being physically blocked as this unfolds. Pe' Sla is a sacred site. What is happening here reflects a broader pattern of intrusion onto Indigenous lands and the defense of places that cannot be replaced. "As youth we have nothing to lose and everything to win. We will put our bodies on the line. This is the Lakota way of life.

Indigenous fire Stewardship IS A CLIMATE SOLUTION A QUICK GUIDE TO SCHOLARS AND STEWARDS Scholar_Melinda @scholar_melinda The Indigenous People*Speak*Language of Ecology The peoples of what is now called California have long used fire traditions through the generations. However, government agencies have favored the approach to prescribed burning. Prescribed burning is the application of fire to an ecosystem for fuel reduction, habitat improvement goals. In California, wildfire risk reduction is a primary goal of explores how cultural burning among the North Fork Mono differs from government agency-led prescribed burning, including examining how the knowledge which informs each type of burning differs and how the underlying assumptions around these knowledge bases can impede fruitful cooperation berween fire practioners. The authors call for an increase in cultural burn agreements that would allow the state's tribes to conduct cultural burns themselves on more state and federal land. Before 1850, when the Indians lived on the land, the forest canopy was kept open. The thickness of the canopy was 40% or less, today, when the Creek Fire of 2020 burned 380,000 acres, the canopy was 80-90% thick. In 1834, when Joseph R. Walker came over the Sierra Nevada Mountains on the north side of what is now Yosemite National Park, he stated that the trails were wide open, and the forest was wide opcn, allowing him and his men to travel easily through the mountains and forest (Phillips 1993). In 1846, when Charles Fremont (Blount 1984) came over the Sierras, he too spoke of the openness. Spanish soldiers scouting for places to build another mission observed that they traveled under the canopy of the oaks for some 28 leagues. In 1851, when Jeff Mayfield came from the coast through the Central Valley, he noted the openness, the vast expanses of beautiful flowers, and how the great Valley Oaks went on and on for miles (Mayfield and Margolan 1993). Finally, when John Muir came to the Mono in 1868, he talked about how all the THE HONORABLE RON GOODE, CHAIRMAN OF THE NORTH FORK MONO TRIBE Chairman Ron Goode The (re)emergence of Aboriginal women and cultural burning in New South Wales, Australia Vanessa Cavanagh Interviewer: Do you think it's important for Aboriginal women to be involved in cultural burning, and winy? Participant: Yeah, I do. I think that it is for two reasons, particularly it reinforces that our cultural rites of passage as Aboriginal women in a matriarchal society and it's a practice we would have traditionally have done, and, you know, we all know through colonisation that patriarchal line has taken some of our rites of passage away, but I also think it's important for Aboriginal women to be involved in cultural burning because they're the ones who we're going to rely on to pass that down to their children and their grandchildren and that, to me, is more important - that's the most important part of as 'wildfire.) The phrase 'unprecedented bushfire is becoming commonplace in Australia, as we experience the reality of global increasing fire frequency and intensity (Bowman et al. 2016; Clarke et al. 2020). In the search for potential responses to the ongoing crisis, growing attention has turned to focus on Aboriginal peoples' caring for Country knowledge, in particular how fire has shaped Australia (Gammage 2011; Fletcher et al. 2021) and how Aboriginal fire knowledge may mitigate future fire events (Steffensen 2020).
