Sponsored by Movement Rights, in the Four Directional quadrants of Oklahoma, The Convening of the Four Winds goal is to establish Indigenous led grassroots representation in fossil fuel ravaged “ Indian Country”. Oklahoma is now home to 39 Tribal nations, each with unique experiences and outlooks regarding fossil fuel extraction, sovereignty, environmental justice, and what the effects of climate chaos means in their respective communities.

Held at the historic Phillip Deere Round House, located in the territory of the Mvskoke Nation, and co-hosted by longtime Chata Activist Jimbo Simmons and his wife Nancy, this 3rd Convening of the Four Winds promises to bring together a dynamic group of Rights of Nature, Sovereignty, Treaty Rights, and Environmental Justice Movement Leaders to present, train, provide guidance and support to attendees that will become a powerful force of grassroots allies of Mother Earth.
