Episode Synopsis

The oil pipeline company Energy Transfer has brought a SLAPP suit against Greenpeace over the 2016-17 protests at Standing Rock.  The $300 million lawsuit threatens Greenpeace’s financial existence and has major implications for Indigenous rights and the right to free speech and protest. Thirteen environmental groups have signed a solidarity letter raising concerns. Lorraine Chisholm speaks with Paul Paz y Miño of Amazon Watch, a signatory to the solidarity letter.
