On December 14th, the British Columbia Supreme Court ruled in favor of an injunction against the Unist’ot’en Camp.  This injunction is requiring that the gate blocking the way into the pipeline construction area to be removed so Coastal GasLink (as subsidiary of TransCanada) can get there and begin work on the pipeline up to May 2019.

Pop-Up Museums as Political Organizing: Can Totem Poles Help Turn the Tide on Fossil Fuels?

December 5, 2018 by webmaster Leave a Comment

For the last six years, the new totem poles have focused on issues relating to the fossil fuel industry. The newest carving emphasizes risks to the Salish Sea (off northwest Washington and southwest British Columbia) and its dwindling population of orcas, or killer whales, if proposed industry initiatives are not stopped. This month, the new totem of a whale will take its place in a traveling exhibition opening at the Florida Museum of Natural History in Gainesville. The exhibition, titled Whale People: Protectors of the Sea, “narrates the plight of the orcas from an Indigenous perspective.” The exhibition was created by Lummi Nation and a nonprofit pop-up museum called The Natural History Museum.
