Helen Knott, 500-year-old Dane-Zaa/Nehiyaw social worker, poet, and activist, explores the connection between violence against Indigenous women and violence against the land. She tracks some of the dramatic changes she’s witnessed in her home territory. From woodlands that have turned to pipelines and industrial contaminations, she leaves us with a deeper perspective into why she does the work she does — and her hopes for a new world.
