My first visit to Boston to moderate a discussion about Joseph Lee's new book "Nothing More of This Land". It's about community, power, and Indigenous Identity and I cannot reccomend it enough.

We are the Wind River Tribal Buffalo Initiative on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. Our goal is to restore traditional connections with Buffalo by putting them back on the land as wildlife.

Wildlife, not livestock: Why the Eastern Shoshone in Wyoming are reclassifying buffaloes (This story was published in partnership with The Associated Press.) In Wyoming, the Eastern Shoshone want to redefine how we see buffalo.

The Eastern Shoshone this month voted to classify buffalo as wildlife instead of livestock. The vote indicates a growing interest to both restore buffalo on the landscape and challenge the relationship between animal and product. The latest from @siisiiko.bsky.social. grist.org/indigenous/w...

I was selected to attend the Skoll World Forum in Oxford, England this last week.

The Climate Desk at the Associated Press gave story telling workshops and I learned a lot from Indigenous journalists from around the world.

In Wyoming, tribal protests prevent land transfer β€” for now A GOP-led Congress could resuscitate the effort to transfer roughly 2 acres within the Wind River Indian Reservation to a local irrigation district.

My latest on a federal land transfer in Wyoming that the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone oppose.

Protesters will be in Cheyenne on Trump's inaguration day to continue voicing oppostion.
