In Episode 62, we talk to a special group of powerful Secwepemc women from Neskonlith Indian Band. Neskonlith Chief Judy Wilson, elder Alice Aby and Kanahus Manuel from Tiny House Warriors all join the podcast to talk about the Secwepemc governance, laws and their responsibility to protect their lands from the Trans Mountain pipeline. They have called on us to support them in any way we can.Link to Neskonlith's notice to media with background information:https://mediacoop.ca/story/statement-rejection-secw%C3%A9pemec-bc-government-gover/37001Link to Tiny House Warriors:http://www.tinyhousewarriors.com/Press release demanding man camps be shut down:http://www.tinyhousewarriors.com/2020/04/shut-down-the-man-camps/When more information and links for support become available, I will post it here.Here is the YouTube video of this podcast in case you prefer video-version:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt-p86Fn9Cw&t=9sPlease note: Nothing in this podcast advocates for violence on Indigenous territories.Note: The information contained in this podcast is not legal, financial or medical advice, nor should it be relied on as such.If you would like more information about these issues, you can check out my website at www.pampalmater.comIf you would like to support my work, here is the link to my Patreon account:www.patreon.com/pampalmaterMy new book: Warrior Life: Indigenous Resistance and Resurgence by Fernwood Publishing is available for pre-order with a 10% discount for podcast listeners by using code warrior10fernwoodpublishing.ca/book/warrior-life(picture by Justin Brake used with permission by Kanahus Manuel)
