The repository is to be located within the traditional territory of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WabigoonLakeOjibway" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WabigoonLakeOjibway</span></a> Nation, forty-three kilometres from Ignace.</p><p>[...]</p><p>"The Wabigoon Lake Ojibway Nation—WLON—or <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WabigoonFirstNation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WabigoonFirstNation</span></a>, based in the Kenora district southeast of Dryden and a member of Grand Council Treaty 3, is the First Nation partner for the NWMO in the Ignace area. Treaty 3 encompasses 55,000 square metres and stretches from eastern Manitoba to just west of Thunder Bay; it includes twenty-eight communities of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Anishinaabe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Anishinaabe</span></a> peoples, located in Northwestern <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ontario" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ontario</span></a> and southeastern <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Manitoba" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Manitoba</span></a>, with a total population of about 25,000. The WLON is a Saulteaux First Nation band and, as of 2021, had a registered population of 822, with an on-reserve population of 186 residing at Wabigoon Lake 27 Indian Reserve who operate a wild rice processing plant, a logging business, and a tree nursery there. The consultations over the possible DGR siting in the Ignace area led to some quite acrimonious public controversy among a number of First Nations communities, many of which are very close to each other in an area at the southernmost corner of the extreme northwestern edge of Ontario, near both the Manitoba and US borders."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://thewalrus.ca/the-most-toxic-substance-on-earth-and-the-tiny-town-volunteering-to-host-it/?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">thewalrus.ca/the-most-toxic-su</span><span class="invisible">bstance-on-earth-and-the-tiny-town-volunteering-to-host-it/?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalRacism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnvironmentalRacism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearWaste" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearWaste</span></a></p>

And in the face of decades of global, high-profile pleas for clemency for Peltier, including by James Reynolds, a “senior US attorney who was involved in [his] prosecution,” no president up until now has been willing to free Peltier. Given that he’s in increasingly poor health, time is running out, and the same president who just pardoned his own son may be Peltier’s last shot at clemency. If you haven’t yet done so, check out the Amnesty International petition– and Amy Goodman’s and Denis Moynihan’s recent column–making the case for his release. The Red Nation media collective also has an extensive playlist of podcasts focused on Peltier’s case and the long struggle to free him.</p><p>"Peltier, arguably the world’s most visible casualty of nuclear colonialism, was only three years into his sentence when Santee Dakota organizer John Trudell, his contemporary in AIM, delivered a searing 1980 speech at the Black Hills International Survival Gathering.

She combines economic and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/environmental" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>environmental</span></a> approaches in her efforts to create a thriving and sustainable community for her own White Earth reservation and Indigenous populations across the country. </p><p>"Winona LaDuke was born in Los Angeles, California on August 18, 1959 to parents Vincent and Betty (Bernstein) LaDuke. Her father, also known as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SunBear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SunBear</span></a>, was <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Anishinaabe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Anishinaabe</span></a> (or <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ojibwe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ojibwe</span></a>) from the White Earth Reservation in Minnesota. He was an actor, writer, and activist. Her mother was an artist and activist. LaDuke is an <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Anishinaabekwe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Anishinaabekwe</span></a> (Ojibwe) enrolled member of the Mississippi Band <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Anishinaabeg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Anishinaabeg</span></a>. Her father brought her to powwows and other tribal functions, events that made a deep impression on the young LaDuke. LaDuke’s parents divorced when she was five and she moved with her mother, who was of Russian Jewish descent, to Ashland, Oregon. LaDuke visited <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WhiteEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteEarth</span></a> frequently and, at her mother’s encouragement, spent summers living in Native communities in order to strengthen her connection with her heritage. </p><p>"LaDuke attended Harvard University and graduated in 1982 with a degree in rural economic development. While at Harvard, LaDuke’s interest in Native issues grew. She spent a summer working on a campaign to stop uranium mining on Navajo land in Nevada, and testified before the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland about the exploitation of Indian lands. </p><p>"After Harvard, LaDuke took a position as principal of the reservation high school at the White Earth Ojibwe reservation in Minnesota. She soon became involved in a lawsuit filed by the Anishinaabeg people to recover lands promised to them by an 1867 federal treaty. At the time of the treaty, the White Earth Reservation included 837,000 acres, but government policies allowed lumber companies and other non-Native groups to take over more than 90 percent of the land by 1934. After four years of litigation, however, the lawsuit was dismissed. </p><p>"The lawsuit’s failure motivated LaDuke’s ensuing efforts to protect Native lands. In 1985, she helped establish and co-chaired the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousWomensNetwork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndigenousWomensNetwork</span></a> (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IWN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IWN</span></a>), a coalition of 400 Native women activists and groups dedicated to bolstering the visibility of Native women and empowering them to take active roles in tribal politics and culture. The coalition strives both to preserve Indigenous religious and cultural practices and to recover Indigenous lands and conserve their natural resources."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://www.womenshistory.org/education-resources/biographies/winona-laduke" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">womenshistory.org/education-re</span><span class="invisible">sources/biographies/winona-laduke</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GreenParty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GreenParty</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LandBack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LandBack</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HonorTheEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HonorTheEarth</span></a></p>
