The focus that I am taking is of the Indigenous/First Nations response to climate change. I hope to bring light to the steps that are being taken by First Nations that are not as well known compared to other methods. I’m hoping to use documentaries, interviews, and articles devoted to documenting the movements that aren’t as well known. Some of the examples I’m planning on citing are things from the Native Education College and their processes of teaching and curriculum to the Klabona Keepers and their mission to protect their native land. I will also attempt to use Awake: a Dream from Standing Rock as one of my pieces for more evidence. One of the sources that I will use is of the recent development that the Assembly of First Nations will have a seat at the table when discussing climate change issue which is a huge development and improvement for the Indigenous community as they now get to voice their opinion on world issues to do with climate change.
