Indigenous youth are shaping a brighter future. Earth Guardians' Indigenous Youth Leadership Initiative Training explored "What If Indigenous Futures THRIVED?" Participants envisioned Indigenous Futurisms, blending traditional wisdom with modern solutions for climate resilience, environmental justice, and an equitable, regenerative future.

This vision is a call to action. These young leaders advocate for cultural reclamation, sovereignty, and self-determination, building ethical and sustainable futures for their communities and beyond. Earth Guardians' Initiative proves diverse, intergenerational leadership drives meaningful change.

Amelia Southern-Uribe, 21, grew up in environmentally vulnerable Southern communities, recognizing early on that environmental justice is linked to the liberation of marginalized groups. In 2019, they founded Arkansas’s first Zero Hour chapter in Fayetteville, which became a model for climate activism across the state.

Addressing Arkansas’s educational disparities, which exacerbate injustice, Southern-Uribe co-founded Roots magazine in 2022. Roots amplifies BIPOC Southern voices and environmental knowledge, providing free art supplies to artists. In its pilot year, over $7,800 was raised to distribute the magazine statewide.
