Jun San Supports Idle No More And Walks To Inauguration

Jun San Yusada recently travelled to Ottawa, Canada in support of the “Idle No More” movement, and to support Cheif Spence of the Attawapiskat First Nation. On that day, Chief Spence had spent more that 30 days in a hunger strike that began on December 11.

From Idle No More’s website:

Our Goals and objectives are to ensure that the environment is protected and our inherent right to Indigenous sovereignty is recognized as we urge the government of Canada to repeal all legislation which violates Treaties, Aboriginal inherent rights and title, and subsequently environmental protections of land and water.

Later that week Jun San also joined with joins Veterans for Peace walking from Baltimore, MD to Washington DC for the presidential inauguration.
