We demand also that the next forum meeting happen within the following 30 days and be publicly announced through the appropriate outlets to maximize attendance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year it became known that Ofc. Mellone left the San Francisco Police Department on August 18th\u2014a day before SFPD\u2019s Internal Affairs was set to hand down a historic suspension for violating almost every SFPD rule in the book when he fired two different lethal weapons that resulted in the killing of Luis G\u00f3ngora Pat\u2014and began working days later with the Antioch Police Department.

From the frontlines of extraction to the boardrooms of financial institutions to the halls of governments, Indigenous women are leading resistance efforts against the fossil fuel industry. Indigenous women and their allies are building critical strategies for divestment from fossil fuels, calling for justice and accountability from the financial sector, and advocating for a Just Transition that places people and planet first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Worldwide, Indigenous communities are disproportionately affected by ongoing extractive industries, which endanger human rights and neglect Indigenous People\u2019s right to Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) as outlined in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Fossil fuel extraction and pipelines often run through Indigenous territories where many Indigenous peoples have not given consent for extraction or construction, a clear violation of FPIC that puts Indigenous communities at risk of further environmental and cultural injustice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Backed by banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions, fossil fuel companies continue to push forward projects, further exposing Indigenous communities to environmental pollution and now also COVID-19. Along with extraction and infrastructure, fossil fuel companies also develop \u2018man camps\u2019, which house workers from outside the community and have been directly linked with increased rates of drug use, sex trafficking and missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indigenous women and their allies are demanding that financial institutions adhere to the Paris Climate Agreement, protect the climate, respect the rights of nature, and the rights and lives of Indigenous communities experiencing the impacts of fossil fuel development. While much more is still needed, divestment advocacy, direct actions, and campaigning are having a critical impact on the fossil fuel industry regarding moving funds out from the dirty energy sector and generating policy changes to uphold Indigenous and human rights as we face the climate crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speakers include:<br>&#8212; Casey Camp Horinek, Ponca Nation, long-time Native rights activist, Environmental Ambassador and WECAN Board Member<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212; Charlene Aleck, Tsleil-Waututh Nation, former councillor with the Tsleil-Waututh Nation and Trans Mountain pipeline expansion opponent;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212; Monique Verdin, Houma Nation, Director of The Land Memory Bank &amp; Seed Exchange, Organizer with Another Gulf is Possible<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212; Michelle Cook, Din\u00e9, Founder of Divest Invest Protect, Founder and Co-Director of the Indigenous Women\u2019s Divestment Delegations<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>with facilitation and comments by Osprey Orielle Lake, Founder of the Women\u2019s Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN), Co-Director of the Indigenous Women\u2019s Divestment Delegations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Host: Women\u2019s Earth and Climate Action Network<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/330575185049215\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/330575185049215<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

In the occupied West Bank, Israeli settlers are subject to the civilian and criminal legal system whereas Palestinians live under military law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Israel applies civilian criminal law to Palestinian children in East Jerusalem. No Israeli child comes into contact with the military courts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Israel has the dubious distinction of being the&nbsp;only country in the world&nbsp;that automatically and systematically&nbsp;prosecutes children in military courts&nbsp;that lack fundamental fair trial rights and protections. Israel prosecutes between&nbsp;500 and 700 Palestinian children in military courts&nbsp;each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ill-treatment in the Israeli military detention system remains \u201cwidespread, systematic, and institutionalized throughout the process,\u201d according to the UN Children\u2019s Fund (UNICEF) report&nbsp;<em>Children in Israeli Military Detention Observations and Recommendations<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Children typically arrive to interrogation&nbsp;bound, blindfolded, frightened, and sleep deprived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Israeli military law provides&nbsp;no right to legal counsel during interrogation, and Israeli military court judges seldom exclude confessions obtained by coercion or torture.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/nwttac.dci-palestine.org\/nwttac_webinar_20200922\">https:\/\/nwttac.dci-palestine.org\/nwttac_webinar_20200922<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>7.
