RESISTING THE OBLIVION OF ECO-COLONIALISM
A Conversation with Tribal Leaders from Louisiana’s Gulf Coast
For over a century, extractive industries, practices, and policies have threatened human and non-human life throughout the Mississippi River Delta region. Recent state-driven delta governance has largely excluded the descendants of the first peoples to inhabit the region and done nothing to ensure their continued lifeways, governance, and ecological relations.
