finally sharing my piece from the evening star zine! find out more about it's meaning and see other beautiful art in the @ntvzine!
i'm doing so to ask all of you to consider taking a moment to submit a comment to the army corps of engineers asking them to prevent the dakota access pipeline from crossing underneath lake oahe!!! comments end december 13th, and using the pre-fabbed letter that the standing rock tribe provides takes mere seconds of your time!! if you're feeling more charitable with your time, writing a unique comment helps immensely! (date passed!)
if you're seeing this after dec 13th - consider checking out the zine this comes from - all proceeds go to AISES, which is an organization that helps native americans in STEM (which includes conservation work!)
Hello, I am doing a project for school and would love to know if there are any current petitions or donation sites for the Sioux people and the Standing Rock protest? I can only find ones that were made 4 years ago

March 11, 2024 — Appalachians Against Pipelines activists prevented drilling of Poor Mountain in Virginia for 8 hours as part of an effort to stop the Mountain Valley pipeline (MVP) project.

Mountain Valley Pipeline is a fracked gas pipeline that "stretches from the shale fields of so-called 'West Virginia' into central 'Virginia' with a possible extension into 'North Carolina.' The hazardous project will disrupt delicate ecosystems, harm communities, and increase international dependence on fossil fuels, pushing the planet further into climate chaos."
Activists face arrests and jail time trying prevent completion of MVP and the inevitable environmental disasters caused by pipelines like Keystone, which has had 23 spills since it began operating in 2010.
A U.S. District Court on Monday ordered Energy Transfer LP to shut and empty the largest pipeline from the North Dakota shale oil fields within 30 days, in a big win for the Native American tribes who have fought the line's route across a crucial water supply.
JULY 6, 2020
“Today is a historic day for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and the many people who have supported us in the fight against the pipeline,” said Chairman Mike Faith of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. “This pipeline should have never been built here. We told them that from the beginning.”

"In this landmark case, the Brackeens — the white, adoptive parents of a Diné child in Texas — seek to overturn ICWA by claiming reverse racism. Joined by co-defendants including the states of Texas, Ohio, Louisiana, and Indiana, they’re being represented pro bono by Gibson Dunn, a high-powered law firm which also counts oil companies Energy Transfer and Enbridge, responsible for the Dakota Access and Line 3 pipelines, among its clients."
Very telling how activists were silent on nodapl protesters abandoning adult dogs and puppies in their messy camps back in 2017 and it had to take a ND group furry friends rockin rescue work to clean up and save animal lives. None of you are a dog's best friend.
this literally happened because of repeated forced evacuations by the police who did not give people enough time before they started violently removing them. i mean this shit is even verified by snopes who is in the pocket of the state.
so if you want to blame someone for animal abuse you can start with the cops. until you start there im just gonna tell you i dont give a shit about dogs. i would eat a dog if it was offered. i dont care.
you come here again acting like this is more important than modern day colonial violence i will literally just share videos of recipes to make dog. fuck off.
