For generations, the Gwich'in people of Alaska and northern Canada have depended on caribou migrating through the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge's coastal plain. Their traditional culture faces threats from oil extraction and climate change. Two Gwich'in women continue a decades-long fight to protect their land and future.

The Arctic Refuge is vital for Alaska Native subsistence and represents an unspoiled natural world. Despite its importance, the Trump administration plans to allow oil and gas drilling in the coastal plain. This drilling would destroy intact wilderness and violate the human rights of the Gwich'in, who rely on this sacred place.

The Gwich'in are fighting to protect their future and need support.

UC Merced student Martin Figueroa spearheaded a campus movement to reduce water use. In 2011, he organized the "UC Merced Water Battle," a month-long competition involving over 600 students across residence halls.

While the lithium mining battle there is a local dispute over habitat and indigenous rights, it also represents a new frontier in the extraction economy. The search for oil "replacements" like lithium perpetuates similar environmental harm and community destruction, repeating old patterns of abuse.
