À propos de cet audio

In this episode, Betty Osceola, a Miccosukee leader and environmental advocate, delves into the proposed Wilderness Designation that will significantly impact the tribe and the proposed area to be closed off to humans. She sheds light on the ongoing displacement of indigenous communities in the region and challenges the conservationist notion that wildlife preserves devoid of human contact are inherently healthier.


Osceola asserts that the original stewards of the land should not be locked out of the lands on which they have cared and their presence is essential in the healing process of this damaged ecosystem. She proposes active involvement of indigenous communities in developing sustainable solutions for preservation.
