Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 In March 2014, the Lakota Sioux tribe president, Bryan Brewer, declared war on the Keystone XL Pipeline, which would have passed directly through Oceti Sakowin territory.
#2 The KXL also crossed through the permanent reservation boundaries of the Great Sioux Nation, and unceded lands of the 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty, which forbids white settlement without Indigenous consent.
#3 The KXL conflict was about the land, and who owned it. White settlers own 96 percent of all private agricultural lands in the United States, and 98 percent of all private lands overall.
#4 In response to the economic crisis, revolutionary flowers had blossomed in public squares around the world, offering for a brief moment a vision of a different world. In 2010, young people of the Arab Spring toppled dictators, and tragedy and betrayal soon followed. In 2011, disenchanted millennials of the Occupy Wall Street movement put anti-capitalism back on the agenda.

#1

In March 2014, the Lakota Sioux tribe president, Bryan Brewer, declared war on the Keystone XL Pipeline, which would have passed directly through Oceti Sakowin territory.

#2

The KXL also crossed through the permanent reservation boundaries of the Great Sioux Nation, and unceded lands of the 1868 Fort Laramie Treaty, which forbids white settlement without Indigenous consent.

#3

The KXL conflict was about the land, and who owned it. White settlers own 96 percent of all private agricultural lands in the United States, and 98 percent of all private lands overall.

#4

In response to the economic crisis, revolutionary flowers had blossomed in public squares around the world, offering for a brief moment a vision of a different world. In 2010, young people of the Arab Spring toppled dictators, and tragedy and betrayal soon followed. In 2011, disenchanted millennials of the Occupy Wall Street movement put anti-capitalism back on the agenda.

#5

Indigenous feminist interventions have become all the more important in the wake of the oil boom, as it has led to an influx of men flooding the region’s man camps and Resource Extraction intensifying a murderous heteropatriarchy.

#6

The links between the extractive industry and violence against Indigenous peoples also exist in the United States. The Bakken oil boom that began in 2007 made North Dakota the second-largest oil producing state, after Texas. This occurred on the Fort Berthold Reservation, the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation, which sits atop some of the region’s deepest oil reserves.

#7

In 2012, despite massive opposition, Obama fast-tracked the construction of KXL’s southern leg from Cushing, Oklahoma, to the Gulf Coast.

#8

The Lower Brule tribe crossed a picket line and began negotiating with TransCanada, despite having signed a treaty promising not to.

#9

Grassrope, a former tribal cop, believed that it was the common people that made the movement succeed. The ikce wicasa, the ikce winyan, were the ones who changed history, not great men or tribal councils.

#10

The divisions in the Oglala Sioux tribe can be traced back to the 1889 Sioux Agreement, which broke up the Great Sioux Reservation into five separate reservations. This was the primary reason why Oglala supporters of AIM in 1973 took over Wounded Knee in protest of Pine Ridge’s IRA government.

#11

The Lower Brule opposition, even with grassroots support, was unable to significantly change the IRA council’s structure or policies. But their advocacy would have a resonating impact. After Obama denied the required presidential permit for KXL’s northern leg in December of 2015, the newly elected Lower Brule council changed course and supported Standing Rock’s battle against the Dakota Access Pipeline.

#12

In September 2014, the Army Corps rerouted the Dakota Access Pipeline, which was to be built near Bismarck, North Dakota, and cross the river near Standing Rock. The tribe opposed the pipeline, citing a 2012 resolution that forbade any oil pipeline within the boundaries of the 1851 and 1868 Fort Laramie Treaties.

#13

The Army Corps’ decision to fast-track the pipeline, bypassing environmental reviews and public scrutiny, significantly undermined the ability of the affected communities to mobilize and defend themselves.

#14

The concerns of the Standing Rock Sioux were many, but the one that resonated with me the most was the water. The tribe feared that the pipeline would leak and pollute their source of drinking water, the Missouri River.

#15

The struggle at Standing Rock was an intergenerational one that was inherited by the current generation. The #NoDAPL movement was born out of this, as it brought together tribal councils and grassroots movements.

#16

The struggle at Standing Rock was not simply about land, but about the meaning of land. For some, the earth had to be tamed and dominated by a plow or drilled for profit. For others, it was their ancestors who lay buried beneath the soil.

#17

On August 26, Chairman Dave Archambault II gave tribal employees the day off to join a prayer action at the DAPL site. The next day, blood was spilled in the struggle over hallowed ground.
