    Episode 6 - The Supreme Court Fights Against Water Rights Part 2
    Sep 6 2023
    In June of this year, the Court ruled in a 5-4 decision to severely restrict the definition of wetlands in the US. This overrules years of precedent, rewrites the Clean Water Act, and could have severe impacts on water quality across the nation. Now, up to 63 million acres of wetlands and several million miles of ephemeral streams are at risk of being developed, polluted, or destroyed.This episodes discusses what wetlands are, why they are important, and how the decision will negatively impact water quality across the country.Image Source: Earthjustice, 2022Battle Music: The Army of the Minotaur by Makai Symphony

  • The Supreme Court Fights Against Water Rights Part 1

    The Supreme Court Fights Against Water Rights Part 1
    Aug 9 2023
    In this episode, we discuss the Supreme Court Case Arizona v. Navajo Nation, 2023, and how the Supreme Court is reinforcing centuries of state-imposed violence on the Navajo Nation by their ruling. In short, the Court ruled that the US Government has no duty to provide water to the Navajo Nation, despite the reservation facing an active humanitarian crisis. The Navajo Nation is as large as the State of West Virginia and has a population of roughly 174,000 people. This podcast is dedicating to deconstructing the Supreme Court's arguments, and solidifying the need for the US Government o provide reparations to indigenous communities, including providing water infrastructure.
