We Are All Water Protectors: Environmental Racism and Reimagining Water Stewardship with an Indigenous Lense

Scheduled for Indigenous History Month, the We Are All Water Protectors Gathering leans into the 8th Principle for Reconciliation, Calls to Action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: “Supporting Aboriginal peoples’ cultural revitalization and integrating Indigenous knowledge systems, oral histories, laws, protocols, and connections to the land into the reconciliation process.” Implementing this principle as part of the TRC’s vision of “a new way of living together” is framed for the purposes of this event as a reimagining of Water stewardship.
