Join a discussion with indigenous environmental leaders and legal experts describing how indigenous people using the concept of the “rights of nature” have been won “incredible advancements — even just in the last year,” and how they plan to use the growing Rights of Nature movement to shift culture and law to stem the worst impacts of climate change.
Can the movement win rights for the the sacred wild rice in Minnesota? For the right of a river to flow freely and free from fossil fuel?
Panelists include:
Frank Bibeau, attorney for the White Earth Band of Ojibwe, who filed the first Rights of Nature lawsuit on Turtle Island, as part of the fight against Line 3
