“My heart is full. My soul is full. Just seeing all these talented Native, Indigenous people who are just sharing their talent with the rest of the world. That we have a place here.

"Our people contribute the least to climate change and are the most impacted. All of you in the industrial and technological world have lands to return home to and we do not — we are now climate refugees. We may be small and insignificant to the rest of the industrial world but we are content with what little we have."
