Global #J11 Day of Action rally in Somba K’e, Denendeh

Two videos of the Global Day of Action rally in downtown Somba K’e (Yellowknife) on the Akaitcho territory of the Yellowknives Dene First Nation in Denendeh (Northwest Territories) with a set of still photos.

Lawrence Nayally one of the event’s organizers posted the following to the event’s Facebook page about an hour before the rally started …

“… We are rallying downtown YK @ 12:00pm. Tents will be set-up for lunch to distribute food prepared by community members and another for info-sheets, discussion, etc. … Its an historical event taking shape all across this country, so why not be apart of it. Together united, 8th Fire Ignited! …”

Here’s the link to the second video that does not seem to want to appear in a window below.
