A fire burns as part of a blockade between Water Protectors and the authorities. The public witnessed a new level of escalation on October 27, 2016 in the Native struggle at Standing Rock, as police swept through an encampment in the direct path of the Dakota Access pipeline (DAPL). The resulting standoff with the National Guard, and police officers from various states,led to more than 100 arrests. Advancing authorities attacked Water Protectors with flash grenades, bean bag launchers, pepper spray and Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADs). It is crucial that people recognize that Standing Rock is part of an ongoing struggle against colonial violence. The Dakota Access pipeline (#NoDAPL) is a front of struggle in a long-erased war against Native peoples -- a war that has been active since first contact, and waged without interruption.

People stand in solidarity with the Standing Rock Sioux tribe and the Water Protectors on Dec. 1, 2016 in San Francisco. There is a call for December to be a month of action where across the world people stand in unity with the tribe against the Dakota Access pipeline. The Dakota Access Pipeline would carry approximately 570,000 barrels of crude per day from North Dakota to Illinois. A portion of it passes through the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe's ancestral lands, and within a half mile of the Tribe's present-day reservation. An oil spill will be culturally and economically catastrophic. Pictured in the center of the photo is Marcus Wade.

After the final DAPL permit was granted, the Indigenous Coalition at Standing Rock is calling for February 8th to be an international day of emergency actions to disrupt business as usual and unleash a global intersectional resistance to fossil fuels and fascism. In New York the #NoDAPL ! Emergency Protest Against Easement action was held at Thomas Paine Park (Foley Square)

National Nurses United (NNU)'s Registered Nurse Response Network (RNRN)--a volunteer network of nurses providing disaster relief--deployed in early December, for the third time, to Standing Rock. The RNs were on hand to assist with first aid for water protectors resisting the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL)--as well as for the thousands of arriving Veterans for Standing Rock. Nurse volunteers witnessed the big announcement on Dec. 4 that the Army Corps of Engineers had, for the time being, denied the easement for the final stretch of the pipeline construction.

 

When a blizzard arose the next day, many water protectors, veterans and locals sought shelter at the Prairie Knights Casino--where a pow wow was being held. During the pow wow, veterans danced and stood in ceremony with tribal members.

 

RNRN volunteers were on hand at the casino to provide care for those who were struggling with the cold, or who were simply not feeling well. RNRN registered nurse volunteers Amy Bowen and Rachel Gitas also worked the night shift at the Sacred Stone camp during the blizzard, helping water protectors seeking care in the medical tent. Rachel even went tent to tent with a water protector to make sure no one had been buried in the snow.

 

The nurses know the fight to resist DAPL is not over. They vow to stand in solidarity with Standing Rock for as long as it takes to stop this dirty oil pipeline--and its threats to both the Standing Rock Sioux's sacred land, and the water supply and health of up to 17 million people.

STOP LINE 3 & DAPL \\ BUILD BACK FOSSIL FREE

 

Oakland Federal Building

February 27th, 2021

 

Massive, beautiful STREET MURAL in Oakland, CA., sponsored by Idle No More SF Bay, Climate Justice Street Mural Project, Distributed Sound Collective, 1,000 Grandmothers for Future Generations and East Point Peace Academy.

 

From the organizers:

 

"We are here to protect the water, climate and communities in solidarity with indigenous-led movements fighting the Line 3 and (DAPL) Dakota Access Pipe Lines. We call on the Biden/Harris administration to cancel these pipelines and to Build Back Fossil Free-- to end the era of fossil fuel production, and protect communities reeling from the climate and COVID-19"

 

The big message was "STOP LINE 3 & DAPL \\ BUILD BACK FOSSIL FREE" with 12 groups painting their own visions for future generations.

Divest Wells Fargo - Native People Not For Sale

 

February 24, 2018

 

THUNDERBIRD WOMAN RISES AGAIN

Wells Fargo World Headquarters

San Francisco Financial District.

 

With a huge street mural, native people tell Wells Fargo they will not be bought off with greenwashing grant $$ while the bank extends huge lines of credit to Canadian oil corporation, TransCanada, to build the Keystone XL pipeline and others investing in fossil fuel infrastructure projects.

 

Grandmothers from the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe in South Dakota join native people and allies in the Bay Area to bring Thunderbird Woman back to Montgomery Street where she made an appearance November, 2017. While sharing stories of struggle for clean land, air, water and for Indigenous Sovereignty, they call for divestment from Wells Fargo and for Wells Fargo to divest from the fossil fuel industry.

 

- Native People Are Not For Sale -

- Water Is Life -

- WELLS FARGO DIVEST -

Bayou Bridge - Trans Mountain - DAPL - KXL - Line3

This was organized as an anti-DAPL money divestiture rally. However, it's Portland. So feel free to join in and protest anything you want.

(As an aside, Henry and I are both considering trying the lavender hair color seen in the center. Which one of us do you think would wear it better?)
