Youth Advocacy for Tribal Sovereignty

  • Bangor Public Library 145 Harlow St Bangor, ME (map)

This year, Maine lawmakers have another chance to advance Wabanaki sovereignty. But what does sovereignty truly mean for the Wabanaki Nations of what is now called Maine?

Join us for an educational event that highlights how young people are leading efforts to advocate for the Nations’ rights to self-governance and access to federal programs.

The event will cover the history of the Settlement Acts, Wabanaki sovereignty, and how young people are leading the movement. An interactive workshop will also encourage attendees to urge legislators to pass this year’s Wabanaki Sovereignty bills.
