Sleydo', also known as Molly Ann Wickham, is an Indigenous activist and Wing Chief of the Cas Yikh, a house group of the Gidimt'en Clan of the Wet'suwet'en Nation. She gained prominence in 2020 when she became a spokesperson for the Wet'suwet'en during the conflict between the First Nation and the Coastal GasLink Pipeline project.
Sleydo' is featured in the documentary film Yintah, meaning "land" in the Wet'suwet'en language. The documentary shows the Wet'suwet'en nation's fight for sovereignty as they resist the construction of multiple oil and fracked-gas pipelines across their territory. Her sister, Jennifer Wickham, was one of the film's directors.
