Northern Indigenous Communities Take the Airwaves
Wet'suwet'en and Fort Chip fight tar sands, establish community stations
A Wet'suwet'en Nation reserve and the community of Fort Chipewayn have both established their own community radio stations. Both communities are at the forefront of Indigenous opposition to Tar Sands developments. Sakura Saunders has long helped community radio stations get established and she edits protestbarrick.net. She witnessed and took part in the establishment of both stations.
