If you follow your heart, if you listen to your gut, and if you extend your hand to help another, not for any agenda, but for the sake of humanity, you are going to find the truth.
Life is full of challenges. How you handle these challenges is what builds character. Never be afraid to be who you are.
I am an advocate for awareness, the truth, and a person's right to know. I believe that in the absence of the truth, all of us stand helpless to defend ourselves, our families and our health, which is the greatest gift we have.
If you can go out there and stand up for what it is you believe in no matter how many times you are knocked down, in the end the swinging of your own blows will exhaust them.

We must have clean water and the health and the welfare of our children is at stake and is at risk.
For me, what I see happening in this [clean water] crisis is deterioration of the family. It is deterioration of our health.
I stand with the Navajo Nation and call upon the U.S. Government to do what is right and clean up this mess.
Had there not been the film, my name would not represent somebody that's out there fighting for the environment.
