On this week’s Making Contact, we bring you a special encore of an episode that first aired in June: an extended interview with Ivey Camille Manybeads Tso, a queer Din filmmaker and director of the award-winning documentary Powerlands.
Powerlands traces how multinational energy corporations extract resources and profits while displacing and harming Indigenous communities around the world. The film follows Indigenous activists in Navajo Nation, Colombia, Mexico, and the Philippines who are fighting back against corporations like Peabody Energy, Glencore, and BHP.
