The #Unistoten stand-off: How Canada’s “prove-it” mentality undermines #reconciliation
www.wcel.org/blog/unistoten-stand-how... @WCELaw
We like to think we're so much better in Canada. Like we treat people with more dignity, and respect. What's happening right now in #Unistoten is just a clear showing that we're perfectly capable of the same horrific shit everyone else is.
Understanding #Unistoten (from article):
- 5 Clans of #Wetsuweten, with 13 Houses.
- Unist'ot'en is a House of Gilseyhu Clan, Gitdumt’en another Clan.
- Authority over territory lies with hereditary chiefs of Houses.

End quotation. Ever had that experience where you read social theory and think, “That’s exactly what is happening at this moment.” #wetsuwetenstrong #Unistoten #Wetsuweten
The sun is setting on the fossil fuel industry.
Colonial exploitation must give way to collaboration.
