The #documentary film that I'm featured in is now available for #free viewing:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Rb4q_dXo7Bw
It includes footage & shared #deforestation issues with the #Amazon. It's all connected.
I'm holding back tears near the end of it. I was arrested a few days after doing the documentary film interview at gate to River & Landback resistance camps.
My frontlines interview with Donna Clark from #XRVancouver has finally uploaded.
I talk about why I'm at the blockades. I talk about the ecocide on my family's matriarch homelands. I talk about the devastating & longterm effects of the US invasion on Vietnam. I talk about how we need to protect/study/find more ancient forest medicines. I talk about colonialism & brutalities. I talk about my amazing resilient villager relations. I talk about how ecocide destroyed my matriarch village ways of life.
I also bring up the sellouts.
We were carpet bombed by #USA #racist terrorists. Fact.
Please take the time to listen to what I have to say. Thank you for those who care enough to listen to me & why I keep fighting for a better world - for all of us.
With #SisterFriends at frontlines. Warrior POC women against ongoing colonial ecocide. I had not slept for 3 days & had not bathed in 8 days at that time. I was chaining myself to bridge & other infrastructure for over a week. I had experienced over 50 RCMP CIRG raids by this time & refused to stop fighting back. We, war survivors, do not back down from colonial forces easily.

Standoff between unarmed peaceful activists & militarized #RCMPCIRG - employed by #BCgovernment using #BCcitizens tax monies - in middle of the night. It was raining almost all day/night. Frontliners didn't budge ️
From 2021 frontlines.
#VicPD asking us to move from BC Ministry of Environment & Climate offices. We refused to vacate. We shutdown building for 6 hours.
Building manager & landlord tried & failed to get us arrested ️
Urban frontlines 2022.
Awaiting to be arrested (again) at HeliCamp - named because it was only camp that could take out activists via #helicopter.
This was a very remote, high up in mountain valley resistance camp that I first got death threats from one unhinged logger, from Lake Cowichan & told by one RCMP CIRG guy that I deserve to be raped.
2021 was a helluva year!
#FuckTheRCMP - they flew these #helicopters multiple times, daily, to try & intimidate us. We had Transport Canada verify that this helicopter maneuver & 3 other ones documented at other resistance camp areas was illegal & violated federal regulations but no action was taken to punish people responsible for violations.
This footage was taken before over 100 RCMP CIRG goons raided 4 different #ResistanceCamps.
Voluntary RCMP #CIRG unit was created in 2017 as a strictly corporate mercenaries unit in BC. Approved by #BCNDP government. The same government who has given them multiple budget increases - millions of #BCtaxpayers monies were used for that. Taxpayers monies were also used by #BCgovernment on attempts to criminalize environmental activists in BC courts. Some of the court cases are still ongoing.
RCMP CIRG is a fully voluntary unit & RCMP who choose to join the unit get paid more than regular RCMP goons. It's all about the extra money for these colonial greedy chumps.

#FlashbackFriday Cultural #solidarity with #Indigenous land defenders in BC Part of Last Stand for Ancient Forests citizens driven PR.
I'll post a past video of an interview I did from frontlines this weekend so folks will understand my strong solidarity stance better
Who are the #DomesticTerrorists here?
The unarmed #environmental activists or the state funded, militarized #RCMP #CIRG unit?
Who is the one fighting for humanity & protection of our ecosystems?
Who is protecting the profits only interests of ecocidal corporations & the sellout politicians?
Tell me - who are the real domestic terrorists that you see in these #photos.
Part of the #RCMP #CIRG #DomesticTerrorists who violated multiple laws with impunity. This was taken about an hour before another very violent raid.
From the frontlines, 2021.
#Grassroots #courage over #colonial #fascists ️
Staying calm while #RCMP #CIRG chumps surround & threaten you is #HumanityInAction. Most female environmental activists have more bravery than all #RCMP across #Canada

#FuckTheRCMP - they flew these #helicopters multiple times, daily, circling over us, to try & intimidate us. An hour after I took this vid clip - they flew above us again. I mooned them from landback resistance camp bridge.

The sentiment has not changed.

If I can quit buying and smoking cigarettes, the RCMP can quit being racist shitheads, shooting unarmed POC and escalating situations in to violent conflicts #fuckthercmp #fuckcops
While running my bath - sharing more of my local activism history. Cops here, hate me. Good. I'm hated by the right kinda fuckwads.
When the #RCMP tried to threaten me, I responded by organizing a mass mobility cross BC & Canada protest & surrounded their detachments. Fuck them. We had over 500 people show up in Victoria. We had solidarity from NZ, LA, UK & NY too
