Over the last decade, the Unist’ot’en clan of the Wet’suwet’en nation have been re-occupying their traditional territories and defending their lands and waters from industry. We caught up with the Gidimt’en and Likht’samisyu clans who have also been building on their respective territories.

This is one of the most effective pieces of political advocacy I’ve ever
seen. Ben Cohen, the Ben of Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream, narrates a short
Flash movie for TrueMajority.org, in which he explains – using Oreo cookies
– the way that the federal budget is currently apportioned, and how
little rearrangement would be necessary to renew all of America’s social
programs. The examples are vivid and charming, and the logic is
compelling.
The only thing I’d change is adding a fast-forward, pause and rewind
button. I wanted to refer back to specific sections of the movie, and
the “play all the way through” interface really frustrated me (just
taking this screenshot was really hard).
