 PROTECTING OUR WATERS

From the Lake of Betrayal to Defend the Ohiyo


By Caleb Abrams, Onödowa’ga:’ (Seneca) filmmaker and multimedia artist



Caleb’s presentation and discussion will cover impacts on water and the Seneca people from the displacement and damage caused by the Kinzua Dam to nuclear waste at West Valley. He will give an overview of the now successful Defend the Ohiyo campaign to protect the Allegheny River from a proposed frack waste facility at the river’s headwaters in Coudersport, PA. With local interest now reinvigorated towards clean-up of Cattaraugus Creek, join us and learn how to support this effort.
