for any of my american followers, please learn more about line 3 and the water protectors. line 3 is illegal and violates the treaty rights of the Anishinaabe people in Minnesota. this is bigger than you might think. it will directly effect climate change, it’s guaranteed that there will be oil spills if it’s completed, and it will not lower gas prices for us since the pipes will carry tar sands which isn’t used in gasoline for cars at all. enbridge is a Canadian company and america will not profit off of this.
if you want to learn more, @ugrunna, @quiiroi/@quiibunnie, and @giiwedinindizhinikaaz on tiktok have excellent information and resources. that’s how i’ve been staying up to date and, unfortunately, i don’t know of any great resources on tumblr.
if you can donate, i donated to Stopline3 on venmo. the money is used for bail funds for indigenous people arrested while protesting peacefully and it also goes to the water protectors’ supplies.
the website link below also gives more information about line 3 and has a petition you can sign to tell president biden to stop line 3. if you’d like to help and you’re an american, you can also text “SIGN PBGBUD” to 50409 to tell your representatives to stop line 3.
