A tribute to Dennis Banks: Walking for Land, Life and Peace.

Saturday, 11 November 2017 - 10:00am to 10:30am

This week we pay tribute to Dennis Banks, Ojibwa from Leech Lake, who dies on the 29th October at age 80.  He was an activist, educator and writer and co-founded the American Indian Movement in 1968.  He was involved in and organised many sacred walks and runs,  enacting an ancient Native American tradition of bringing a message of "Land, Life and Peace" from village to village on foot.

Today we’ll hear excerpts from recordings by and interviews with nuclear-free campaigners who have run or walked alongside Banks.
