Summary: Today on the Idle No More Indigenous Report is guest Miss Erica Violet Lee who is Nehiyaw (Cree) from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan."In November 2012, Erica spoke at the first “Idle No More” teach-in, held at Station 20 West in Saskatoon. Sincethen, she has been recognized as an international youth leader with the movement, drawing attention to the need for social and environmental justice for First Nations in Canada. As one of the managers for the official Idle No More Facebook page, which reaches over a million people a week, Erica has done countless interviews with media all around the world, including Al Jazeera, the Toronto Sun, and CBC, all while continuing to assist with Idle No More actions internationally."Also some info on me here:Erica who has already achieved great success and notoriety at the age of 22, and continues to work tirelessly in her community and across the world to address issues of human rights. Erica's outstanding leadership as a U of Saskatoon representative stretches far beyond the impact she's had locally. Her involvement in the Idle No More movement has no doubt been an inspiration to young Aboriginal students, and non-Aboriginal students alike, within and beyond Canada.
