Indigenous Environmental Justice by Karen Jarratt-Snider Book PDF Summary

"With connections to traditional homelands being at the heart of Native identity, environmental justice is of heightened importance to Indigenous communities.

Combining elements of legal issues, human rights issues, and sovereignty issues, Indigenous Environmental Justice creates a clear example of community resilience in the face of corporate greed"--
