Arctic Refuge

Description

Item #SP7159CD. A few years ago we met Sarah James, a remarkable Native American woman who has inspired us with her activism and dedication to preserving her culture and the wilderness that her tribe depends on. We have created this album to help preserve the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and the richness of life it supports: the caribou, polar bears, arctic foxes, grizzlies, musk ox, wolves, migratory birds, and the rich culture of the Native people of this land.““”If we destroy the land and resources on which we depend, and with which we live, then we are destroying ourselves. We depend on the caribou and our survival depends on their protection. We cannot tolerate any harm to the renewable resources that have sustained my people and our ancestors for many thousands of years.”““Norma Kassi“a Gwich’in leader from Old Crow“Yukon““Length: 60 minutes.
