#INMroots From Actions Against Fracking in the West to Activist Trainings in the Dakotas – Idle No More

Welcome to the second Idle No More grassroots newsletter which will now be called #INMroots!   Thanks to everyone who submitted ideas for the newsletter name.

The goal of the #INMroots newsletter is to share news stories that promote Indigenous rights and sovereignty and the protection of land and water.   The newsletter will share our stories, actions, and honour resistance while celebrating the world that we are protecting.
