Climate Reality Project. Spotlight On: Indigenous Leadership

From the Lumbee Nation elders instrumental in stopping the Atlantic Coast Pipeline to the Standing Rock Sioux protestors risking everything to block the Dakota Access Pipeline, Indigenous activists are leading the fight against fossil fuels and for a truly just transition to clean energy across the US. Join our next Spotlight On webinar on August 11 from 2-3 PM ET to hear how four Indigenous activists who’ve been on the front lines of this fight stood up to fossil fuel giants and won.
