We Can’t Breathe: Policing, Pollution, Public Violence, and Pandemic

This year, we are focusing our hearts and attention on the multiple crises that harm our communities – namely the public violence of policing, pollution, and the pandemic – and how our collective struggle can transform that harm into wellbeing for our communities.

To promote the safety of our community members, we have planned for this year’s Summit to be held online for the month of October. We will be gathering via email, social media, on Zoom, and by word of mouth to continue to practice solidarity and prove that our strength in numbers is not changed by any force! In addition to the virtual events, for the month of October, we will be asking our members and others to join in completing weekly action challenges as well as three live-stream events, to actively engage collectively towards our shared goals. Our traditions are adaptable. Our power never falters!

Meeting Location

October 12th Indigenous Peoples Day! 
Join Tribal Leaders & Demand Liberty Mutual Drops Keystone XL

Celebrate October 12th "Indigenous People Day" with us at the Fruit of labor World Cultural Center as we join Tribal INDIGENOUS Nations leaders call to stop the Keystone XL pipeline destroying their sacred lands! We do not celebrate Columbus and the imperialist setters coming to the so called Americas to take and colonize the indigenous peoples' lands!

Last week, the Great Plains Tribal Chairmen’s Association wrote to Liberty Mutual CEO, David Long, to demand that Liberty Mutual immediately cut ties with the Keystone XL pipeline.

This is major. Without insurance, Keystone XL can’t legally be built. The Great Plains Tribal Chairmen’s Association represents the leaders of sixteen sovereign Tribal Nations whose land, water, and treaty rights are threatened by the Keystone XL pipeline.

Liberty Mutual has a clear choice: Listen to the leaders of sixteen Tribal Nations, or stand with the fossil fuel industry and TC Energy ― the corporation behind Keystone XL.
