Pipeline Protest: The Battle Over Sacred Land

Over the last year, the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North Dakota has waged a battle against a proposed pipeline near their reservation. The tribe fears that the pipeline could endanger their water supply and several of their sacred sites. The battle has brought other indigenous tribes and supporters from all across the country to their defense, culminating in an order from the federal government to temporarily halt the pipeline’s construction.

During our show, we gave background on how this battle started, how the North Dakotas officials have responded, and what’s next for these brave activists, featuring, Nicole Donaghy, an organizer for the Dakota Resource Council and member of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.
