Standing Rock: The Fight Was Never Over
Submitted by blazinAZ on Wed, 01/25/2017 - 5:15pmThe Indigenous Environmental Network responds to Trump’s support for the KXCL pipeline and DAPL (my bold):
These actions by President Trump are insane and extreme, and nothing short of attacks on our ancestral homelands as Indigenous peoples. The executive orders demonstrate that this administration is more than willing to violate federal law that is meant to protect Indigenous rights, human rights, the environment, and the overall safety of communities for the benefit of the fossil fuel industry. These attacks will not be ignored, our resistance is stronger than ever before and we are prepared to push back at any reckless decision made by this administration. #NoDAPL
