The authorities in North Dakota keep arresting native people who oppose the intrusion by an oil pipeline on their sacred land. These indigenous leaders are just a few of the thousands of water protectors who know first-hand the toxic legacy of fossil fuel extraction and exploitation. They are forging a new path that integrates the latest in clean energy innovation with indigenous wisdom that cares for community, protects the land and looks toward the wellbeing of our children. Their protest shows how backward it quickly has become to install an oil pipeline.
