(Part 2 of 2) When John Trudell died on December 8, 2015, many were at a loss how to explain in a few words what he meant to them: Santee Sioux poet, philosopher, musician and warrior came to mind and the commercial media added his roles in films and the films made about him. The talk you are about to hear was part of yet another engagement of his. John Trudell supported international campaigns against fossil fuel extraction on Indigenous lands. Here is the conclusion of his talk in support of the U'wa people of Colombia, whose fight against oil drilling continues to this day. Produced by TUC Radio.
