Protest 2010 Olympic Torch Relay

The Olympic torch, a flamed staff that represents white supremacy, is running through Indigenous nations and territories, symbolizing their theft and dominance of our lands and ways.

Let us unite voices and show the world we are a proud and independent people who will never surrender our lands.
