Description
This Earth is our mother, we are a part of her and we have ethical obligations and duties to protect her and all life who we share this planet with. Indigenous peoples are fighting for this planet all over the Earth. Intersections between animal activism on industrialized farming and Indigenous ways of knowing. The Earth is in crisis. Indigenous communities are in crisis. Trauma for our people is connected to the trauma of the Earth - both based in colonial approaches.
