Stand for Indigenous Land Justice: Stop STAMP
[]
YES! Magazine - Environment
But instead the WNY STAMP project in Genesee County is being sited right on the border of the Tonawanda’s pristine Big Woods.
Biological surveys, in addition to Indigenous knowledge, have revealed that the Big Woods is home to threatened species as well as a threatened culture.
Many citizens of the Tonawanda Seneca Nation rely on the Big Woods for subsistence hunting, fishing, and gathering of traditional medicines.
It is heart-wrenching to consider the irreparable cultural harm of building an industrial park on the Big Woods border.
If the state and federal governments truly stand behind their commitments to environmental justice, then we should stand with the Tonawanda—for the Big Woods, and for Indigenous land justice.
