 land.\n\nSpeaker:\nCorrina Gould\nCo-organizer of Indian People Organizing 
 for Change.\n\nFilm Screening: \nStanding on Sacred Ground:  Pilgrims and

 project.”\n\nSpeaker:\nChief Caleen Sisk\nCaleen Sisk is at the forefront

 systems, and stop disastrous projects such as the Delta Twin Tunnels and 
 the Shasta Dam Raise that threatens to bury vital Winnemem ceremonial sites 
 beneath Shasta Lake.\n\nWith Special Guest:\nHawane Rios\nVisiting from 
 across the Pacific, Hawane Rios is a songwriter and cultural practicitioner
