Indigenous communities within and around so-called “North America” have experienced the severe detriment of our homelands, on and off reservations for generations because of extractive industries. Many generations of Indigenous people today have not known Mother Earth without her suffering from climate disaster. As rightful stewards of the land, Indigenous communities lead one another to climate justice through various tactics, creatively, and collectively through art.

During 2021 and 2022 thousands of Indigenous people and allies took to the streets of urban communities like Los Angeles and San Francisco, California to call out large climate disaster financiers like BlackRock and Wells Fargo due to their hands in funding the destruction of Indigenous land.

Through Indigenous resistance, communities have collectively unified to pursue climate justice for a healed Mother Earth.
