About this listen

The history of a dammed Klamath River is part of the broader history of settler colonialism, resource extraction, and the control of water in the American West. This episode shares histories of Native resistance and refusal as well as the history of the movement, both Native and non-native, to bring a century-old system of four hydroelectric dams down, free the Klamath, and feed its systems of lakes and wetlands.
