Rita Wong lives, writes and works \u00a0in unceded Coast Salish territories (Vancouver) and teaches at Emily Carr University of Art & Design. \u00a0Her books of poetry such as\u00a0Beholden: A Poem as Long as a River (with Fred\u00a0Wah & the Columbia River)<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0perpetual\u00a0<\/i>(with artist Cindy Mochizuki) are dedicated to questions of water, ecosystem, and climate justice within commitments to decolonial, Indigenous-led relational ethics. \u00a0She is frequently out standing with local Indigenous peoples to protect lands and waters and was arrested in August 2018 and served jail time for peacefully blocking access to the TransMountain facility at the Westridge Marine terminal.\u00a0 Her statement<\/a> from her court hearing reads in part, \u201cOur ceremony that morning was an act of spiritual commitment, of prayer, of artistic expression, of freedom of expression, an act of desperation in the face of climate crisis, an act of allegiance with the earth\u2019s natural laws, and a heartfelt attempt to prevent mass extinction of the human race. . . \u00a0we can all learn from natural law and Coast Salish law that we have a reciprocal relationship with the land; and that we all have a responsibility to care for the land\u2019s health, which is ultimately our health too.\u201d<\/p>\n
