As many folks may know, or not know due to the ridiculous media blackout, there are hundreds of Indigenous tribes gathering in North Dakota to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline.
Hau we are the Inyan wakankagapi otip-Sacred Stone Camp from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. We have partnership with the Oectc Sakowin- Seven Council Fires, Indians and Cowboys and anyone who is willing to stand with us against the Dakota Access Pipeline. This pipeline will cross the Missouri River and Cannon Ball River which is the life line to many tribes and non native, when this pipeline leaks it will destroy the water and land. Water is life ! So this pipeline is along the Missouri River and the KL pipeline was along the Ogall aquifer; both are important to save.
We are asking for financial support for water, propane, food and blankets for the camp. This is a prayer camp movement to save our sacred land and water and has been entirely supported by the people and the campers.
We are in great appreciation for all you contributions….Wopila lila tanka– we are deeply grateful for you contributions thank you!
In Spirit
Sacred Stone Camp

Activism resurfaces in Brattleboro
There was a protest downtown related to this the other day.
A lone person with a sign that said “Stand with Standing Rock” was getting noticed, waved at, beeped for.
Lone Person *Fav *Like
Pretty much says it all about current connection to original inhabitants and legacy of our land.
The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe was ecstatic
Mixed victory…
