Colouring the Courts Red and Green: Environment, Indigenous Rights & the Law with Sakshi - Episode 33
Jamie and Skander race to Cambridge in the latest episode of Rising with the Tide. Of course, as Jamie lives nearby he takes on a smug look and takes comically small and warped steps. Little does he know, Skander hasn't skipped leg day. The run from Oslo to their newest guest Sakshi is a breeze for the latter, even if he had to run on top of the North Sea Jesus-style. Sakshi, currently finishing her PhD at Cambridge University, walks the pair through halls of colonial history and legacy. They discuss her research on indigenous rights and the court system in Australia, Brazil and Canada. Sakshi introduces us to concepts such as Marxist Legal Theory and Indigeneity, and even explains her misgivings about books such as Andreas Malm's "How to Blow Up a Pipeline".
As they cover one green criminology case after the other, from Wet'suwet'en land defenders to Steven Donziger, your hosts come out of their auspicious meeting with Sakshi having a better understanding of what the law can and cannot do for people around the world fighting for their rights, be it for the preservation of indigenous places or the protection of natural resources from the greedy grasp of corporations.
You can find Sakshi on Twitter - @SakshiAravind
