Clayton Thomas-Muller explains the campaign by Idle No More and Defenders of the Land calling on indigenous peoples and their allies to stand together and proclaim the importance of indigenous sovereignty.
#Oct7Proclaim October 7, 1763, marked the signing of the British Royal Proclamation, an historic document that legally mandated Canada to recognize Indigenous land rights.
250 years later, on October 7, 2013… Idle No More calls on all peoples to raise (y)our voices and take action in support of:
Our Land
Our Water
Our Bodies
Our Stories
Our Future
Indigenous Sovereignty
