Yurok leader Sammy Gensaw III shares his experiences in ecological and cultural revival along the Klamath River. He discusses how ancestral wisdom, modern science, and activism were crucial for dam removal, highlighting Indigenous leadership’s role in rekindling connections to land and water for a resilient future.

Gensaw, a leader in environmental and cultural preservation, directs the Ancestral Guard, a nonprofit teaching traditional fishing and farming to Indigenous youth.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, 16-year-old Riya Chandra discovered a passion for hiking but noticed a lack of girls of color in outdoor spaces. Research revealed historical non-inclusivity and systemic barriers preventing families of color from accessing nature, validating her own experiences.

To address this, Chandra founded HYPE: GIRLS (Hiking Youth Program for Equity: Girls) in 2021. The program organizes hikes, nature walks, and lectures for teenage girls of color in New York's Westchester and Yonkers areas. HYPE: GIRLS fosters a safe, inclusive community, promoting nature interaction for coping and self-discovery. It aims to inspire young people to protect our environment and become role models for future generations.
