Gitxsan and Wet’suwet’en Youth will deliver an update from the frontlines on their territories, where they are resisting fossil fuel and LNG build-out, in particular the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission and Coastal Gaslink Pipeline phase 2. The webinar will include a call to action for students, youth, and workers on post-secondary campuses to take action on March 20 in solidarity with Indigenous land defenders, targeting Canada’s big banks and those funding the destruction of Indigenous land and our collective futures.
Featuring Speakers:
Drew Harris, Gitxsan Youth of the Lax Yip and Shaylee Holland, Wet’suwet’en Youth
Students and young people have a unique power to dissuade banks and funders from continuing to finance the destruction of Indigenous lands and our shared climate. Join us to hear youth voices from the frontlines and join the fight for climate justice and Indigenous sovereignty on campuses and beyond! Although this webinar is aimed at a youth and student audience, non-student allies and community members are encouraged to join us and hear this powerful message from the land defenders.
