On this episode, Yvette interviews Seanná Howard, a clinical professor at the University of Arizona Law School's Indigenous Law and Policy program. Seanná explains the extent of criminalization of water protectors that occurred during the Standing Rock protests, alerts listeners to the ongoing litigation and conflict regarding San Francisco Peaks, a volcanic mountain range in Northern Arizona considered sacred to the Hopi that has sewage effluent running through it, and shares a recent win in Belize where the government will provide land titles to indigenous people who had historically and traditionally lived there.
