Native American North Dakota Access oil pipeline protesters: 'We refuse to be Trumped'

Published on Nov 14, 2016

Why Are Women Needed in Cannabis? (Part 2)

Published on May 2, 2016

What does it take for women to succeed in the cannabis industry? Part 2, Part 1 here.

We talked to three respected women in Oregon cannabis, and learned a few things.

Confidence, a strong mind, passion and knowledge are key. Along with a healthy respect for the advocates and activists who got us here. Also, a deep and abiding love for the plant. When we focus away from her, things start to go awry, and they also become a lot less fun.

Big thanks to:

The Daily life of Nenets Indigenous women in the Siberian Arctic

Published on Oct 17, 2016

The Nenets people are nomadic reindeer herders in North-West Siberia. They heavily depend on their herds for food, clothes, transport and shelter and have migrated for over 1000 years across their ancestral homelands. Currently the entire region and its inhabitants are under serious threat from climate change as temperatures are on a steep rise and Russia’s ancient permafrost is melting.

Siberia stretches southwards from the Arctic Ocean to the hills of north-central Kazakhstan and to the national borders of Mongolia and China. With an area of 13.1 million square kilometres, Siberia accounts for 77% of Russia's land area, but it is home to just 40 million people – 27% of the country's population.

RISE With Standing Rock

ublished on Oct 10, 2016

There's a revolution happening in Standing Rock, at the O?héthi Šakówi? camp, and across the country. Over 200 indigenous American nations and 6,000 people have travelled to the community in an unprecedented act of solidarity. Catalyzed by the fight against Dakota Access Pipeline, Native American tribes are protecting their water, but even more, protecting their sovereignty in the face of a colonialist State. In a time when we still celebrate Christopher Columbus, violent colonizer, the indigenous rights movement is more important than ever.

On Indigenous People's Day 2016, we're #StandingWithStandingRock. Journalist Jonathan Klett connects what's happening in North Dakota to what's happening in D.C. Chase Iron Eyes, US Representative Candidate for North Dakota and Judith LeBlanc, director of the Native organizers Alliance, speak to what's at stake in this fight.
