Take a minute and search youtube for Winona LaDuke videos. Pick one speech, watch it, and tell us about it in a paragraph. What were your reactions to her talk?
I watched a portion of Winona LaDuke's 2010 speech to the General Assembly of the Unitarian Universalist Association. On youtube it was titled, "Winona LaDuke on linear thinking and climate change." In this video, LaDuke talks about linear versus cyclical thinking, waste production, the prison-industrial complex, climate change, peak oil, the Canadian tar sands, and the war in Iraq. In each case, she boils the issue down to a simple and obvious truth, at least if you are ready to hear it. I'm encouraged to hear such a public figure saying such great things. I wonder how to spread those ideas further.
