Join MiCAN, Up North Advocacy, the Anishinaabek Caucus, and the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians for a special screening of "Bad River," a powerful documentary that captures the inspiring fight of the Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa to protect their sovereignty, lands, and waters from the dangers of the aging Line 5 pipeline.
"Bad River" tells this Wisconsin-based Indigenous community's David vs. Goliath story as they take on a large energy giant operating a 70-year-old pipeline that crosses their reservation. The film chronicles the Band's legal battle to remove the pipeline, bringing to light shocking revelations, devastating losses, and the enduring resilience of a people determined to protect their future.
A panel discussion will follow the screening.
