A U.S. district judge has dismissed claims by Native American tribes and environmentalists who sought to halt construction along part of a $10 billion energy transmission line.
Last year, I attended a week long workshop about tribal relations. It was also led by people from different tribal groups. This was a big takeaway, that people in my position often “consult” with native folks by telling them what decision has been made, instead of having them a seat at the decision making table. Essentially, no consultation and definitely no sharing on decision.
