Native America Calling: When the military is deployed against protesters

When the military is deployed against protesters
President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops and U.S. Marines to quell protests in Los Angeles has upped the ante when it comes to the response to direct action.
Native Americans turned to civil disobedience during high profile protests at Standing Rock and following George Floyd’s death more recently, and during the formation of the American Indian Movement more than a half century ago. Will the equation for direct action include confrontations with the U.S. military from now on?
Tune into Native America Calling to discuss what Native activists see for the future of public protests.
