Monday, September 16, 2024 – Native in the Spotlight: Betty Osceola
Update: 2024-09-16
Description
The Florida Everglades are on "life support". That’s the assessment of Miccosukee environmental advocate Betty Osceola, who says the famed wetlands are under relentless threat from urban encroachment, pollution, and poor management. Osceola is a dedicated defender of her homelands that are also home to at least 39 endangered or threatened species including the Florida panther and the American crocodile. She is sounding the alarm over historically high water levels that are destroying habitat and drowning culturally important sites. We'll talk with Osceola about her connection to the Everglades and her passion to preserve them. She joins us as this month's Native in the Spotlight.
