A crowd of about 200 demonstrators gathered outside the White House to protest the Army’s decision to greenlight the completion of the Dakota Access Pipeline without an environmental study. The Army’s approval of a final construction permit comes two weeks after Trump signed an executive order aimed at pushing the controversial project forward. Seeming to ignore the concerns of Native American groups and environmentalist, Trump stressed that the project would create “a lot of jobs, 28,000 jobs.

Jordan Marie Daniel - a member of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe in South Dakota and a grassroots/community organizer with the DC Stands With Standing Rock Coalition, left, leads Greenpeace activists and allies as they came together in solidarity with water protectors at Standing Rock, North Dakota to target a Citibank branch with a protest in Washington, D.C. February 6, 2017. Citibank is one of the largest institutions and creditors of the Dakota Access Pipeline. The construction of the Dakota Access Pipeline has led to the brutalization of peaceful water protectors at Standing Rock, North Dakota. If successfully completed, the pipeline would destroy sacred Indigenous lands, potentially poison the water supply of thousands of people and fast track climate change.

Protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline, in front of the Citibank at Connecticut and L St. Citibank is one of the financers of the project.

Led by Chicagoland indigenous organizations, people assembled at Federal Plaza to hear speeches and create a community snake dance against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL). They were joined by a marchers from an anti-Trump protest. The DAPL is often called the "Black Snake”.

 

The pipeline will run across approximately 1,172 miles of land from North Dakota to Illinois. The DAPL will transfer crude oil, through the Oglala Aquifer, as well as, under the Big Sioux, Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. The pipeline will run through the traditional lands of the Standing Rock Sioux endangering water and sacred sites.

 

Energy Transfer Partners has 100% completion of the Dakota Access Pipeline in Illinois, and South Dakota. Resistance in North Dakota and Iowa are our last lines of defense against DAPL.

 

On Monday, October 23rd, more than 30 Vashon Islanders, including 17 youth, protested at Chase Bank, joining the global call to action #DivestTheGlobe. In 50 communities across the U.S. and on Vashon, concerned community members demanded financial institutions stop financing fossil fuel pipelines, due to their repression of indigenous rights, human rights abuses, the fueling of climate change, and the desecration of the earth.

 

Vashon’s colorful protest included youth marching in song with a 10 foot inflatable globe, a banner that read “Vashon Green School Supports Standing Rock - All Life Is Equal” and a 30 foot long banner that read “Stop Desecration of the Earth, Stop Funding Climate Destruction, Honor Indigenous Rights.” Youth sang inside Chase Bank. A letter (linked below), signed by some of the largest environmental organizations, was read, calling on Chase Bank CEO, Jamie Dimon, to divest the Bank’s holdings from investments in fossil fuels. Then account holder Mike McGrath cut his bank card in half, breaking the chains wrapped around him. Mike McGrath closed his account and severed his ties with Chase Bank until the bank ends all current and future investments in fossil fuel infrastructure.

 

October 23rd through the 25th, 92 of the world's largest banks meet in São Paolo, Brazil to discuss policies on the climate and Indigenous People's rights to Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC). The Indigenous-led coalition of Mazaska (Money) Talks and Standing Rock leaders called on allies everywhere to join them for three days of mass global action.

 

Vashonites with a conscience joined this global call for action to show the banks that financing climate disaster and the abuse of Indigenous Peoples is not an acceptable business practice.

 

The solidarity actions across the world target the banks that fund the desecration of Mother Earth. These banks include Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) financiers such as Wells Fargo, Bank of America, J.P. Morgan Chase. They fund the destructive Canadian tar sands oil extraction that is seriously affecting First Nations' health, lands, and water, as well as worsening the climate crisis.

 

The action was organized by members of the Backbone Campaign. Participating youth were from the Vashon Green School as well as part of a homeschool network. This action is being called the largest bank protest ever. Organizers of 350Seattle aimed to mobilize actions at 100 bank branches. Protests continue in Europe, Australia and New Zealand on October 24th and in Africa and Asia on October 25th.

Minneapolis, Minnesota

 

October 25, 2016

 

About 200 people gathered outside Minneapolis City Hall to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline. The planned pipeline will transport 470,000 barrels of oil per day 1,172 miles from North Dakota to Illinois. Protesters called for a stop of the pipeline construction which will pass upstream from the Standing Rock Sioux Nation. Along with the threat to their water supply, the tribe claims the pipeline will destroy burial sites and sacred places.

The Oceti Sakowin resistance camp at Standing Rock is its own living breathing being. Water protectors constantly stream in and out of camp. Protectors leave physically and mentally tired, but with a sense of collective accomplishment, while new water protectors arrive renewed and ready to battle the black snake known as the Dakota Access pipeline.

Washington DC, The White House, the evening of January 24, 2017. Around a thousand climate justice activists and supporters gathered on Pennsylvania Avenue to protest two memorandums signed by President Trump this morning essentially reauthorizing the previously rejected KXL and DAPL pipeline projects. The KXL memorandum invited TransCanada to re-apply with the promise of a speedy approval with no input from environmental agencies. The DAPL memorandum advises the Army Corp Of Engineers that the project is in our "national interest" and that the environmental review placed on it by Obama should be revoked. After a rally with speeches around a hundred or so folks marched noisily to Trump's Heartbreak Hotel for a secondary rally and 'die in'.

This was one of the solidarity rallies happening around the world this day to show support for the protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline. The planned pipeline will transport 470,000 barrels of oil per day 1,172 miles from North Dakota to Illinois. Protesters called for a stop of the pipeline construction which will pass upstream from the Standing Rock Sioux Nation. Along with the threat to their water supply, the tribe claims the pipeline will destroy burial sites and sacred places.

Led by Chicagoland indigenous organizations, people assembled at Federal Plaza to hear speeches and create a community snake dance against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL). They were joined by a marchers from an anti-Trump protest. The DAPL is often called the "Black Snake”.

 

The pipeline will run across approximately 1,172 miles of land from North Dakota to Illinois. The DAPL will transfer crude oil, through the Oglala Aquifer, as well as, under the Big Sioux, Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. The pipeline will run through the traditional lands of the Standing Rock Sioux endangering water and sacred sites.

 

Energy Transfer Partners has 100% completion of the Dakota Access Pipeline in Illinois, and South Dakota. Resistance in North Dakota and Iowa are our last lines of defense against DAPL.

I have been thinking about something alot lately.

If anyone has been following the issue up in North Dakota with the Standing Rock Sioux and the DAPL. I have been really shocked at what I have been seeing up there. I am thinking about putting together a big promotion, selling prints and framed photos off of my website or any image seen here on flickr with ALL money made going to the Standing Rock Sioux. Let me know what you think about this, and help me get the word out.

 

It's a great way to fill your home with great art while helping in something that has bothered me and affected so many people

On Monday, October 23rd, more than 30 Vashon Islanders, including 17 youth, protested at Chase Bank, joining the global call to action #DivestTheGlobe. In 50 communities across the U.S. and on Vashon, concerned community members demanded financial institutions stop financing fossil fuel pipelines, due to their repression of indigenous rights, human rights abuses, the fueling of climate change, and the desecration of the earth.

 

Vashon’s colorful protest included youth marching in song with a 10 foot inflatable globe, a banner that read “Vashon Green School Supports Standing Rock - All Life Is Equal” and a 30 foot long banner that read “Stop Desecration of the Earth, Stop Funding Climate Destruction, Honor Indigenous Rights.” Youth sang inside Chase Bank. A letter (linked below), signed by some of the largest environmental organizations, was read, calling on Chase Bank CEO, Jamie Dimon, to divest the Bank’s holdings from investments in fossil fuels. Then account holder Mike McGrath cut his bank card in half, breaking the chains wrapped around him. Mike McGrath closed his account and severed his ties with Chase Bank until the bank ends all current and future investments in fossil fuel infrastructure.

 

October 23rd through the 25th, 92 of the world's largest banks meet in São Paolo, Brazil to discuss policies on the climate and Indigenous People's rights to Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC). The Indigenous-led coalition of Mazaska (Money) Talks and Standing Rock leaders called on allies everywhere to join them for three days of mass global action.

 

Vashonites with a conscience joined this global call for action to show the banks that financing climate disaster and the abuse of Indigenous Peoples is not an acceptable business practice.

 

The solidarity actions across the world target the banks that fund the desecration of Mother Earth. These banks include Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) financiers such as Wells Fargo, Bank of America, J.P. Morgan Chase. They fund the destructive Canadian tar sands oil extraction that is seriously affecting First Nations' health, lands, and water, as well as worsening the climate crisis.

 

The action was organized by members of the Backbone Campaign. Participating youth were from the Vashon Green School as well as part of a homeschool network. This action is being called the largest bank protest ever. Organizers of 350Seattle aimed to mobilize actions at 100 bank branches. Protests continue in Europe, Australia and New Zealand on October 24th and in Africa and Asia on October 25th.

NoDAPL, Berlin Februar 2017.

Demonstration gegen die Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) und gegen Kredite der BayernLB und der Deutschen Bank für die DAPL in Berlin-Mitte am 17.2.2017.

Rund 70 Menschen beteiligen sich an der Auftaktkundgebung am Tränenpalast und gehen die Friedrichstraße südwärts bis zur Filiale der Deutschen Bank in der Friedrichstraße 191. Nach der Zwischenkundgebung an der Deutschen Bank geht die Demonstration weiter bis in die Kronenstraße zum Hauptsitz der Deutschen Kreditbank Aktiengesellschaft (DBK), eine hundertprozentige Tochter der Bayrischen Landesbank (BayernLB), wo es eine Abschlusskundgebung gibt.

Die Demonstration fordert die sofortige Rücknahme der Kredite von 120 Millionen US$ der BayernLB und 275 Millionen US$ der Deutschen Bank als finanzielle Unterstützung der gefährlichen Dakota Access Pipeline. Abgesehen von der Missachtung der Vertragsrechte der Lakota Sioux Nation, bedroht die DAPL das Trinkwasser von 18 Millionen Menschen flussabwärts. Die BayernLB überdenkt momentan ihre Investition und Mitte Februar sollte diese eine erneute Entscheidung treffen.

Aus dem Demonstrations-Aufruf:

„Wir sagen nein zur DAPL und nein zu Trumps Kriegsagenda und Umweltzerstörung! Wir protestieren gemeinsam, um:

1) Die BayernLB und die Deutschen Bank dazu zu bewegen, keine Kredite an die von der Dakota Access Pipeline auszugeben!

2) Der Welt zu sagen, dass der Anti-LSBTQI Vizepräsident Pence und der Klimakiller Außenminister Rex Tilleron hier in Deutschland nicht willkommen sind!“ (Zur Zeit sind Pence und Tilleron von der US-Regierung zu zwei Konferenzen in Europa)

Die Demonstration in Berlin Teil der weltweiten Aktionswoche ‘Global Week of Action’ gegen die Dakota Access Pipeline und eines gemeinsamen Aktionstages, gleichzeitig demonstrieren heute Menschen in 70 weiteren Städten weltweit gegen DAPL und für die Rücknahme der Bankkredite für die DAPL.

Hintergrund-Infos:

Die Dakota Access Pipeline (kurz: DAPL), auch Bakken Pipeline genannt, ist eine im Bau befindliche Erdölpipeline zwischen der erdölreichen Bakken-Formation in North Dakota und dem Pipelineknotenpunkt Patoka in Illinois. Die Pipeline soll eine Länge von 1.880 km haben und durch die US-Bundesstaaten North Dakota, South Dakota und Iowa bis nach Illinois führen. Ihr Bau wird von US-weiten Protesten begleitet und wurde mehrmals gerichtlich gestoppt.

Initiator des rund 3,8 Milliarden US-Dollar teuren Projekt ist der Pipelinebetreiber Energy Transfer Partners.

Dabei werden 200 Wasserläufe überquert ( "water-crossings" ). Vor allem im Gebiet des sich aus einem weit verzweigten Netz von Zuflüssen speisenden Missouri River verläuft die Pipeline durch eine große Flusslandschaft.

Der Protest gegen die Dakota Access Pipeline ist eine der größten Umweltbewegungen der 2000er Jahre in den USA. Der Protest führte zur größten Zusammenkunft von Indianer Nordamerikas seit 1920.

Die Sioux von Standing Rock wehren sich gegen den Bau der Pipeline über Grabstätten und heiligem Land ihrer Vorfahren. Viele ihrer Grabstätten und heilige Orte wurden bereits zerstört, weitere Zerstörungen wurden angekündigt…

This was one of the solidarity rallies happening around the world this day to show support for the protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline. The planned pipeline will transport 470,000 barrels of oil per day 1,172 miles from North Dakota to Illinois. Protesters called for a stop of the pipeline construction which will pass upstream from the Standing Rock Sioux Nation. Along with the threat to their water supply, the tribe claims the pipeline will destroy burial sites and sacred places.

Led by Chicagoland indigenous organizations, people assembled at Federal Plaza to hear speeches and create a community snake dance against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL). They were joined by a marchers from an anti-Trump protest. The DAPL is often called the "Black Snake”.

 

The pipeline will run across approximately 1,172 miles of land from North Dakota to Illinois. The DAPL will transfer crude oil, through the Oglala Aquifer, as well as, under the Big Sioux, Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. The pipeline will run through the traditional lands of the Standing Rock Sioux endangering water and sacred sites.

 

Energy Transfer Partners has 100% completion of the Dakota Access Pipeline in Illinois, and South Dakota. Resistance in North Dakota and Iowa are our last lines of defense against DAPL.
