Learn how Anthony Tamez-Pochel, a member of the First Nation Cree from Chicago, Illinois, led a grassroots movement to lobby the city council for a land resolution to create a safe space for members of the Illinois Indigenous community to practice and share their culture. The Game Changers: Your Rights in Action series features personal stories of civic engagement and asks students to identify the constitutional or civic right being exercised, the civic strategy employed, and the impact of the civic action.
