More info: In yet another display of Big Tobacco’s predatory practices, the concept of traditional tobacco – a sacred symbol of peace and healing in many Native communities – was appropriated and commercialized for the industry’s financial gain. Now, American Indian and Alaska Native communities have the highest prevalence of commercial tobacco use compared to any other population group in the United States. Our panel of community leaders, health experts and tobacco control advocates will explore the difference between traditional and commercial tobacco and celebrate the leadership of Indigenous communities working to take down Big Tobacco.
