GLASGOW, Scotland -- Indigenous at the Indigenous Movement Assembly from around the world are speaking today on real solutions to the climate crisis created by invaders and the fossil fuel industry.

Speaking on the history of genocide, Minniecon said the Pope gave the invaders the right to genocide and to take the lands.

Speaking of the future children, who should not have to clean up today's mess, he said, "We have got a huge responsibility."
"I don't see any hope in here," he said, pointing out that the governments who are the cause of climate crisis and are supported by the fossil fuel industries, are the ones claiming to have the solutions.
"We are demanding a seat at the table."
"The United Nations is made up of the countries who have invaded us -- so why should I listen to them."
