Franklin López12 days, thousands of kilometers dodging potholes and cynical corporate PR—from Nehirowisiw Territory to Kanehsatake, swing through Wemotaci, then Mashteuiatsh—just to film land defenders giving CN and the clear-cutting psychopaths the one-finger salute. This clip, They Stopped the Train to Defend the Forest, is a taste of our full doc Defenders of the Forest, dropping soon and free for your solidarity screenings.

Franklin LópezBon, 12 jours à parcourir le soi-disant Québec dans tous les sens – Camp Souveraineté, Kanesatake, Wemotaci, retour à Camp Souveraineté, puis hop, Terre Inu, et enfin Mashteuiatsh – juste pour voir des actes de résistance autochtone badass contre l’avidité forestière. Premier épisode de notre série vidéo, et je vous préviens : ça va dépoter. Montage complet en docu bientôt.Ne vous inquiétez pas, demain la version anglaise débarque. Et évidemment tout est en français… sauf la partie qui sera en anglais demain, parce que oui, je suis un génie de la logique linguistique. 😉En juillet 2025, des défenseur·e·s de la terre innu·e·s et nehirowisiw·e·s, membres de l’Alliance MAMO, ont bloqué les voies ferrées du Canadien National entre la Mauricie et l’Abitibi pour stopper l’extraction massive de bois sur leurs territoires non cédés. Malgré la présence policière, les blocus sont restés pacifiques, ancrés dans une volonté de protection du territoire et de la forêt boréale. Amplifier Films était sur place, à Wemotaci et Mashteuiatsh, pour documenter cette action de souveraineté autochtone.🎬 Restez à l’écoute pour notre documentaire à venir : Les défenseur·e·s de la forêt 👉 <a href="https://amplifierfilms.ca/fr/foret" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://amplifierfilms.ca/fr/foret</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/R%C3%A9sistanceAutochtone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RésistanceAutochtone</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Souverainet%C3%A9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Souveraineté</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/StopLogging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StopLogging</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AmplifierFilms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AmplifierFilms</a>

Jamez Barrett 🜃 ॐ Ⓐ30 years of forest defence in East Gippsland, Australia.This video remembers those forest defenders that have died. But an image of myself locked on to a log loader is at 11:11 min. I was arrested that morning at Goolengook. I spent two weeks in the forest in the winter of 1997 trying to stop the destruction of the ancient trees.In 2006 the State Government suspended logging while an independent (but government-appointed) assessment was initiated to determine if it should be added to the Victorian Conservation Reserve System.After ten years of campaigning for the protection of Goolengook, the Victorian State election of November 2006 saw the Australian Labor party returned, with a promise to protect the Goolengook block within a new National Park.<a href="https://c.im/tags/SaveForests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SaveForests</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/StopLogging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StopLogging</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SN7rh4L23Yw&ab_channel=GECOEastGippsland" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SN7rh4L23Yw&ab_channel=GECOEastGippsland</a>
