Round Table ~*~ The North Country Art Land & Environment Summit

Join organizers from watersheds around the world to create a global movement.

The concluding event of the NCALE Summit will be a film screening and conversation with the filmmakers behind the production of BURNING OR BREATHING, a documentary series about Earth Guardians. The filmmakers will screen portions of the films, which feature Earth Guardians from the Antigua Watershed (Totonac/Nahua Territory) in Veracruz, Mexico. The event will also feature a virtual round table discussion with the directors, Blake Lavia and Tzintzun Aguilar-Izzo, and several the Earth Guardians who are seeking to create global alliances. They will discuss how communities can work together across watersheds to create a just, sustainable, and socially equitable future for all. 

"Burning or Breathing: Concluding Address" is part of the "North Country Art, Land and Environment Summit." In FALL 2020, community members from the  Kaniatarowanénhne / St. Lawrence Watershed, Haudenosaunee Territory, will come together to discuss sustainable and REGENERATIVE SOLUTIONS for the climate crises.
