Stand with Standing Rock

Practical Ways to Stand with Standing Rock

The Standing Rock protest is an effort to block the Dakota Access pipeline. This pipeline will carry 450,000 barrels of oil per day, over the Bakken fields of North Dakota, 1,172 miles to Patoka, Illinois. This pipeline poses the same threats to public health and the environment that the Keystone XL line does.

From Sacred Stone:

A broad multi-state coalition of tribes, landowners and environmental groups issued a statement speaking out against the project.  The coalition called the USACE process “an egregious violation of the relevant federal environmental laws and the 1851 and 1868 treaties between the US and the L/D/Nakota Nations, which remain the supreme law of the land.”

We are not expendable. We have a right to live. Please stand with us as we protect our sacred lands. Water is life, mni wiconi.
