This country belongs
to All Americans.
Not just the rich,
powerful oil company bullies and the rich politicians.
All Americans!
No one has the right
to get rich
on the backs of the poor
and
middle-class.
Or
By polluting our
drinking water!
U.S. veterans arrive
at pipeline protest camp in North Dakota
Protesters have
spent months rallying against plans to route the $3.8 billion Dakota Access
Pipeline beneath a lake near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation, saying it
poses a threat to water resources and sacred Native American sites.
State officials on
Monday ordered activists to vacate the Oceti Sakowin camp, located on U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers land near Cannon Ball, North Dakota, citing harsh weather
conditions. Officials said on Wednesday however that they will not actively enforce
the order.
Matthew Crane, a
32-year-old Navy veteran who arrived three days ago, said the veterans joining
the protest were "standing on the shoulders of Martin Luther King Jr and
Gandhi" with the their plans to shield protesters.
New York
Times · 3 days ago
As many as 2,000
veterans planned to gather next week at the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in
North Dakota to serve as “human shields” for pipeline protesters.
