NEW YORK -- Chickaloon Traditional Chief Gary Harrison spoke on the murder of Indigenous women and men in Alaska, the lack of subsistence rights and the lack of informed consent for what is happening on the land in Alaska, during the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues.

To a roar of applause, Chief Harrison questioned why governments are taking up the peoples' time at the U.N. Permanent Forum.

"I also find it strange that this is the Permanent Forum, and yet we have all these governments taking up the peoples' time -- the Indigenous Peoples time -- and telling us everything is OK in their countries."
