She talks about the hearing taking place today and tonight regarding the environmental impact statement of Line 5 in Wisconsin (virtually attend at: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_CzO_Cc1KSjGp0Sqijzt5OA), the effort to release Leonard Peltier from prison after he contracted COVID, protests taking place in Alberta at the US-Canada border over Canada’s new restrictions on unvaccinated cross-border truckers and how the Canadian government typically treats indigenous protestors much harsher than those at the US-Canada border right now. Next we’re joined by Winona LaDuke who talks with the Native Roots Radio crew about Line 5. Later we take your calls.
