Beyond borders: Ellen Gabriel’s activism from Kanehsatà:ke to Gaza


Listen Later

This week on APTN News InFocus, host Cierra Bettens is joined by Mohawk activist, artist and filmmaker Ellen Gabriel.

During the 1990 siege at Kanehsatà:ke, Gabriel was chosen by the People of the Longhouse to speak for the community during a 78-day standoff with the Canadian military. Thirty-five years later she continues to speak out, not only for her own people, but for others facing colonization and occupation.

She now focuses part of her advocacy on Gaza, where she sees parallels in the violence, displacement and media narratives.
