SUMMARY:**Cancelled** Earth Ethics of Our Time with Karenna Gore at Fordham
DESCRIPTION:About Our Host:\nFordham University’s Center for Ethics Education was established in 1999 to contribute to Fordham’s commitment to cultivating lifelong habits of critical thinking\, moral reflection and articulate expression. Drawing upon the Jesuit traditions of sapientia et doctrina (wisdom and learning) and homines pro aliis (men and women for others) and the rich cultural diversity of New York City\, the Center sponsors activities that provide students\, faculty\, professionals and the public with knowledge and skills to study\, inform and shape a just society that nurtures the full-flourishing of all members of the human family. \nThe Center’s mission is organized around three interacting motifs concerning ethical problems and possibilities for the dawning of this new century. The interdisciplinary synergy of the Moral Responsibility\, Global Ethics\, and Responsible Science motifs extends Fordham University’s national and international role in finding new means for reanimating social hope and trust and creating languages to articulate the dignity of human persons across philosophical\, cultural\, and religious differences.

SUMMARY:Mashpee Wampanoag Solidarity Training
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to support the Mashpee Wampanoag as they reverse the “disestablishment” of their tribal lands.\nIn this course\, people across the country and internationally will learn to help the Mashpee Wampanoag retain their tribal lands from a recent federal assault. We will close the webinar with a Dream Warriors live concert. United we are unstoppable!\nRegister \nLast month\, the Department of the Interior announced that Mashpee Wampanoag lands would be removed from federal trust and its reservation proclamation would be revoked. In our next webinar\, participants will learn how to help directly from Mashpee Wampanoag tribal members to generate a national shield for their sovereignty. The disestablishment of their reservation is unacceptable\, and to make this announcement during the COVID crisis is deeply cruel. \nThese 321 acres are all the Mashpee Wampanoag tribe has left. It is home to their health care system\, tribal court system\, education system\, language immersion programs and more. We as a nation of many nations\, are prepared to stand with the Wampanoag in peace and prayer to stop this critical assault on their community. If this precedent is established\, other Indigenous communities could be likewise threatened. Any further erosion of native land holdings on this continent equates the further erosion of the dignity of American society. But while our ancestors were once divided\, we of many races are prepared to stand united in support of the Wampanoag to rectify the wrongs of the past. \nParticipants in this webinar will receive an update on the situation from Mashpee Wampanoag tribal members\, a training on how to help them at this time\, and a live concert from the Dream Warriors Indigenous Artist’s Collective to close it up. We believe that through nation-wide organizing\, political communications and prayerful unification\, we can pass the congressional legislation needed to uphold Wampanoag sovereignty. \nWe are excited to see you all on Sunday\, April 19th from 2-4 PM Pacific time and if you can’t make the live webinar\, please register still and you will receive a recording.A portion of the proceeds from suggested donations will go to the Mashpee Wampanoag Nation. The remainder will help native families struggling in the COVID 19 crisis. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. Everyone of every background is encouraged to join. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Reclaiming Indigenous Paths to Health in Times of Planetary Crises: From Colonialism to Climate Injustice and COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:      \nWe live in unsettling times of converging environmental and health crises. Globally\, from climate change and mass species extinction to the spread of both chronic and communicable diseases—now including COVID-19\, we face catastrophes that compel us to rethink life and health as a whole. As ‘modern’ societies grapple with a seemingly ‘unprecedented’ planetary chaos\, now preceded by an indefinite suspension of the ‘normal’ way of life (given COVID-19)\, Indigenous Peoples locate these crises differently\, as part of a long sequence of devastating environmental disruptions and pandemics spreading from the onset of violent conquest to the climate and health injustices of globalization’s (neo)colonial and settler colonial present.  \nBeing distinctively and particularly impacted all along\, Indigenous resistance and resilience find strength in the embodied knowledge that another world is possible outside and beyond the colonial present of environmental and health injustices. This other\, Indigenous world\, is rooted in an encircling notion of whole health that has been passed down by Indigenous ancestors through generations of survivance and struggle\, even in the face of relentless colonial and patriarchal aggression\, including systematic attempts to erase Indigenous cultures\, practices and knowledges. While richly diverse\, many Indigenous Peoples share a holistic vision of health based on reciprocity and care of the sacred relations among the health of the land\, the community (including humans and non-humans)\, the body and the spirit. From Indigenous knowledges\, illness and instability come from imbalances among relations\, including among societies and with Mother Earth.  \nAs modern societies are forced\, however painfully\, to pause their frantic pursuit of ‘economic growth’ at all costs (often in ways that aggravate systemic injustices)\, we must ask not how to ‘restart’ the same system that has been destroying lands and disrupting the climate for centuries while failing to address many of the world’s basic health and nutrition needs. Instead\, we must ask; how do we reclaim other visions and knowledges that can guide us to healthier\, more just and sustainable futures?  \nIn this webinar\, Indigenous knowledge-bearers\, Martha Many Grey Horses and Marcelo Eduardo Zaiduni Salazar join moderators Mindahi Bastida and Leonardo Figueroa to discuss the challenges to Indigenous health from past to present crises\, as well as alternatives based on Indigenous whole health approaches.  \nWatch Live Stream\, April 20th\, 6 pm EDT \nOur Speakers: \n \nMarcelo Eduardo Zaiduni Salazar is from Bolivia\, with Aymara and Aramaic parents. He is a social communicator as well as a traditional doctor and expert in ancestral knowledge.  He is a former Vice Minister of Traditional Medicine and Interculturality of the Plurinational State of Bolivia\, as well as a former Vice Consul of the Plurinational State of Bolivia in Cusco Peru. He is currently a consultant for several agencies on the topic of multidimensional indicators and Good Living.  \n  \n \nDr. Martha Many Grey Horses is a member of the Kainai First Nation of the Blackfoot Confederacy of Canada. She was raised on her parents’ ranch situated along the Bullhorn Creek on the reserve. Martha comes from a long lineage of hereditary chiefs on her mother’s side; her grandparents and parents were spiritual leaders of the traditional Blackfoot societies. Her people hung on to the sacred traditions and practices as best they could. It meant they held their annual summer encampment where the clans came together and there the societies would have their ceremonies. As a junior youth\, Martha was initiated to a Keeper of a Medicine Pipe Bundle. She continues to carry her role and responsibility.  \n  \n \nMindahi Crescencio Bastida Muñoz is Director of the Original Caretakers program at the Center for Earth Ethics. He serves as the general coordinator of the Otomi-Hñahñu Regional Council in Mexico\, a caretaker of the philosophy and traditions of the Otomi Peoples\, and has been an Otomi Ritual Ceremony Officer since 1988. Born in San Pedro Tultepec\, Mexico State\, he holds a doctorate in rural development by the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana and a masters in Political Science by Carleton University. Bastida Muñoz has served as a delegate to several commissions and summits on indigenous rights and the environment. He has written on the relationship between the State and Indigenous Peoples\, intercultural education\, sacred site\, collective intellectual property rights and associated traditional knowledge\, among other topics. \n  \nLeonardo Figueroa Helland is an Associate Professor of Environmental Policy and Sustainability Management at The New School. He leads the Indigeneity and Sustainability project of the Tishman Environment and Design Center and co-convenes the Latin American Observatory of the Humanities for the Environment. A decolonizing scholar of mix-blood heritage (Indigenous and Euro-American)\, his work underlines the centrality of Indigenous resurgence and revitalization in addressing planetary crises and achieving climate justice. His latest writings appear in the Journal of World Systems Research\, the journal Perspectives on Global Development and Technology\, the volume on Social Movements and World-System Transformation\, and the forthcoming volume on Anarchist Political Ecology. His current projects include a manuscript prospectively titled “Anthropocene” Collapse / Indigenous Resurgence: From Planetary Crises to Decolonization.
